My wife and I came to Quepos for a week and were fortunate enough to find Jackpot Sportfishing and booked a full day offshore trip.  Benn, Jackson and Manuel spare no expense at putting you in the possible position to land big game fish.  I can’t say enough about their passion and professionalism.  I can say that everything you want, hope for, or expect from a full day charter is provided and then some!  Food(great lunch!) and drinks(beer, water, soda) are provided plus Benn has a GoPro stick and can record all the action, so we didn’t have to worry about getting that frame worthy shot and we just enjoyed being in the moment. We raised 6 sailfish and landed 3.  I reeled in 2 and my wife got the other.  First sail for both of us. Jackson also snagged a dorado and Benn had a yellowfin tuna that hit a popper he was retrieving from the bow and it broke the hook! These guys are legit and I highly recommend booking the full day charter if you can get on their calendar.  Once in a lifetime experience that you won’t regret! Thanks again Jackpot!

We had a stellar experience with Benn, Manuel, and Jackson. They were attentive and made sure we always had what we needed and fed us snacks and the most delicious pineapple any of us has ever had. We caught one blue Marlin, which was on my dad’s bucket list. You can’t predict luck fishing, but with Jackpot, you know you’ll be getting great service, fun people, and a good time. I’d go out with them again in a second.

Benn and his crew aboard the Good Day are second to none. These guys honestly provided a trip I will never forget. Not only did they put me on my first Black Marlin, but we could have loaded the boat with big Dorado. Aside from the fishing, the entire crew keeps you engaged and you leave at the end of the day feeling you have joined a fraternity. They are true Stewarts of the sea and make it as much a learning experience on top of excellent fishing. I have fished my entire life and understand why it takes to put things togeather and these guys do it as professionals.

I don’t even know where to begin on how amazing these guys are! They made my trip so amazing! We ended up booking them for three trips in a row!!!! I’ve kept in touch with them, and not only caught a bunch of amazing fish, I gained some new friends! Thank you for putting
Me on my bucket list Rooster Fish, and all the others! You absolutely 100% made my trip AMAZING! See you again soon, and if you ever want to come Fish the Gulf Of Mexico, come on out to Texas and I will put you on a great trip as well! You are welcome at my house ANY TIME!

I had 2 days fishing with Benn and his crew aboard their immaculate boat ‘Good Day’ based in Quepos, Costa Rica. We fished one day offshore after billfish and mahi, the other day we fished inshore for snook, rooster fish and cubera. The guys worked so hard to put me on some fish and we were rewarded with some incredible looking specimens! The level of care and attention offered by the guys was second to none and perfect english was spoken too.

Within minutes of arriving at our fishing grounds offshore I was treated to the incredible display and fight from a Sailfish of 198cm which we tagged and released. It was my first of the species and I was delighted, it had been a bucket list fish of mine for some time. We narrowly missed out on bringing a blue marlin to the boat as well, it smashed through the spread of lures and unbelievably missed the hooks….but that’s fishing for you! It was an incredible sight all the same that I wont be forgetting in a hurry!

Fishing inshore was awesome, we quickly filled the livewell with bait which is always good fun and then headed down the coast to some incredible looking ground and rock marks. It screamed roosters and snapper to me and I was not disappointed! With a 20lb class rooster coming to the boat in short time (a personal best for me) and a missed chance with a cubera, it was a great start. We then went on to catch a load of sierra mackerel and jacks which provided some great fun and rod bending action, it was thick and fast with plenty of hook-ups and often 2 fish on at once. We even snuck in to a couple of river mouths to swim some baits for a snook but one dropped run was our only chance.

I cant say enough good things about the whole operation and experience. I’ve fished all over the world and these guys are certainly up there with the best of them. They have the passion, drive and determination and always went that extra mile (quite literally!) to ensure I had a great trip. Highly recommended!
