Bucket List Sportfishing

Member since December 2020 Quepos, Costa Rica
Background
I grew up on the water back in Florida, where I took a love to fishing at a very young age. In 2000 I began fishing professionally, where I continued on and off until moving full time to Costa Rica in 2017. My plan was to move here and do what I love full time and fish among some of the best fisherman in the world. I couldn’t think of a better place to follow my dream. Costa Rica is exceptional in all aspects of fishing, be it inshore or offshore. I feel very fortunate to have ended up where I have and there’s nothing more that I enjoy than sharing that same experience with other people.

The perfect mixed bag of action
The perfect mixed bag of action
Dec 1, 2023 Quepos
Another solid day finishing 9/7/6 on sails, 1/1 on marlin, and endless mahi and tuna. We were really hoping for our first slam of the season yesterday after having our sail and blue by 10:30, but just couldnโ€™t find that stripy. Itโ€™s coming though. #quepossportfishing #marinapezvela #fishingcostarica #manuelantonio #travelcostarica #squidnation #quepostackleshop #bigluresmatter #PENNfishing #Garmin

Good fishing in the a.m. today, but petered out in the afternoon. Finished with a handful of mahi, keeping a couple for dinner. 4 for 5 on sails and a small striped Marlin. Not a bad day for a group from Utah that have never been offshore. #fishingcostarica #manuelantonio #travelcostarica #squidnation #quepostackleshop #bigluresmatter #PENNfishing #Garmin

Hot bite

Nov 26, 2023 Quepos
The bite is starting to pick up and it was clinic time yesterday. Itโ€™s hard to beat customers wanting to learn, so it was a hook your own fish day and even got a little help at the leader. Finished the day raising 12, 11 bites, and releasing 6. We managed to stay away from the mahi most of the day, but still ended up with six or seven in the 20-25# range. Should be ready to roll come Sailfish Slam time. #quepossportfishing #marinapezvela #fishingcostarica #manuelantonio #travelcostarica #squidnation #quepostackleshop #bigluresmatter #PENNfishing #Garmin

All the mahi

Nov 8, 2023 Quepos
Itโ€™s tough to say just yet on how the season is starting out. We certainly havenโ€™t been setting the world on fire in terms of size, but you could fill the boat with these guys each and every day. If action is what your after, itโ€™s in abundance right now. I expect the bigger fish and marlin to start showing up any minute since the food source is definabtly here. Weโ€™ve seen several sails over the past few day, but it has been tough to get solid bites from them. No marlin yet, but itโ€™s defiantly coming and weโ€™re ready. #quepossportfishing #marinapezvela #fishingcostarica #manuelantonio #travelcostarica #squidnation #quepostackleshop #bigluresmatter #PENNfishing #Garmin

Feb 23, 2023 Quepos
Iโ€™m way behind on reports, but Iโ€™ll bomb on here. Fishing has been hit or miss, but of course my expectations always far exceed my customers. Sailfish have been pretty steady, Tuna have been abundant. Mahi are thinning out, but typically have a couple a day. Marlin are pretty good for this time of year and at minimum we are rainy one most trips. Not the most detailed report, but wanted to get something up. The weather is absolutely spot on perfect everyday and good times are always had.
