Need your help for a buddy of mine
A buddy of mine has a Sportfishing business in Costa Rica, and he'd like to expand it to doing inshore / offshore kayak charters. I asked him the standard questions about cost, accomodations, etc... and he will be getting back to me about it.
In the meantime, I figured I'd gauge interest in this for him from all you hardcore guys over here at BWE. What do you think of the idea of a vacation / kayak fishing package which puts you on the water in Costa Rica fishing for Roosterfish, Cubera Snapper, Dorado, Sailfish, etc... Thanks guys! |
awesome
how expensive? any estimates? my days off are not gonna work with the other mothership.
|
Let us know about everything for it
I have a crew that would love to go including the family have any pictures of his place? |
Go the most experienced on kayak fishing Costa Rica....Jim Sammons. Also his fishing ventures on the East Cape are proven and a wee bit cheaper!

Waiting to hear back from him on pricing. It's not "mothership" style. He's been a Captain down there since '92. He's going to do the legwork on getting hooked in with various hotels to accomodate a wider variety of budgets / vacation tastes. I'll get you guys pricing as soon as it's available to me. He mentioned it to me awhile back, and I told him that it's definitely worth exploring, but most guys who do that kinda fishing also have families that would rather go ziplining for the day, or go on a nature hike, or shopping, etc... So it would benefit him to have a variety of options. Anyway, I figured that the guys here on BWE would possibly be interested if he can make it fit dollar-wise. |

Don't have any pics yet, as he just recently asked about this type of program, but I'll get you all the info I can. |

Forgot to mention, he bought a bunch of Hobie Outbacks for this whole operation, and he is working on different packages, for instance:
7 nights / 4 days kayak 7 nights / 2 days offshore kayak - 2 days inshore kayak etc... It should be fairly customizable. I also told him to give me pricing based on 2 people, 4 people, 6 people, etc. It may take a while to get all this info back to you guys. He's always on the water, internet sucks in the rainforest, etc... |
sailfish, roosters, dolphin and Tiger sharks? im down. depending on prices. cant drop a G for it, but half is doable.

The airfare alone to Costa Rica now is about $1000.00. I have been there 2 times on surfing trips. It is a great place to visit but it is not cheap.
