Capt. Randy and mates Javier and Max were awesome. We have had bill fishing on our bucket list for a long time and wanted to give it a run while in Costa Rica. We caught 5-6 grouper for dinner right off the bat and spent the rest of the time trolling for bill fish. Javier/Max were constantly changing baits and keeping any eye out for any billfish.  We had a few hit the bait but short struck it and didn’t hook up. The last 10 minutes of the trip we finally got lucky and landed a 95 inch 85lb sailfish!  Perfect ending to a fantastic day knocking this fish off the bucket list.  Highly recommend.

This team knows their business. They are professional operators, Captain and crew, that want to put you on the fish. The boat is setup great for sport fish and bottom fish. Randy knows the water and the way the fish move through it. Max and Javier are great mates and took every care of us as guests.

We had a full boat and a great run, we would recommend Talking Fish to anyone thinking about a charter in Tamarindo.

We went out with the primary goal of fishing for dinners during our stay, and the mission was accomplished. When the captain says he can guarantee grouper on the Rock fishing, he means it.

The only mildly disappointing thing was that our meat had bones in it, but that could just be inevitable and is no reason not to book this charter. Highly recommend, and would book again next time I’m in town.

WOW WOW WOW!

My usual guys were not available this trip. I did the homework, read the reviews and looked at the ratings. Captain Randy did not disappoint. He lived up to all of it. I’ve gone out with a lot of Tamarindo and Playa Flamingo guides and pretty much knew what to expect. My expectations for this time of year were some sailfish maybe mahi maybe yellowfin.

Captain Randy also did his homework and said the fish were not patterning like the typical and were going to try some other areas. He was right. He put us on a 220 LB blue marlin early and an early afternoon 260 LB blue marlin. We also had a broken off blue marlin and a broken off sail in the late afternoon. Banner day!

Captain Randy also managed to find the yellow fins but the bait ball was too scattered. Unfortunately, no luck there.

I would absolutely recommend Captain Randy, he will get you on the fish!
