Costa Rica billfish advice
 

Just booked a flight for a week in Costa Rica, flying into San Jose early June. Want to do at least a couple days billfishing. Obviously want to steer from tourist traps. Would prefer a smaller sport fisher. Two persons.

Thoughts?

We went back in 2006 and fished out of Quepos, our boat didn't catch ****, but the others in the fleet managed some nice tuna, with a mixed bag of wahoo, and sailfish. Also can do the roosterfishing near shore. Pretty little town, known really only for its beaches and sportfishing

check out http://www.queposfishadventure.com/ He posts regularly on 2cool and is from Texas originally. Seems like a good guy

I am heading there to right after Tyson has his garage sale! We will be in Portero. This is my first time, i'm pretty fired up about it!

Thanks for everybody's response. I'd love a few more suggestions. Quepos sounds terrific, but want to weigh all of the options. So keep 'em coming!

An acquaintance of mine has this outfit.

I would definitely recommend fishing out of Los Suenos. http://mavericksportfish.com/sportfishing-charters I fished with this charter twice. We had a larger group though. We caught 16 sails, 1 blue, and 2 mahi on one trip. Great Captains and Crew. Like Sea Fly Sportfishing on Facebook to see more about Los Suenos and the success of this boat in the tournaments.

I fished with Allin Fishing a local, he anchors out in the bay next to Los Suenos cheap think it was around 550 for a full day fishes a 26' boat caught a couple blues and YFT in 2011 then went back in 2012 and we caught a lot of mahi mahi and YFT. Also did a inshore trip with them and caught a rooster and some jacks.
