My husband and I are avid angles off the West Coast of British Columbia and Washington State. Fishing in Costa Rica was nothing short of hot!!! Weather and fishing wise. Our First Mate Bryan worked his butt off getting us on the fish. He didn’t give up!! He continously checked to make sure we were dragging bait and when fishing turned off he changed things up trying different lures. Captain Hansel put in a shift too. It had to be over 35 degrees the day we went out and both Captain and First... Altro

Amazing boat, highly skilled captain and crew, excellent experience! Best sport fishing I’ve done in terms of total experience. 100% recommend and will be coming back! Muchas gracias!

We had a great trip aboard Papi Chulo with Captain Hansel and crew. Everyone in our group caught fish. First mate Daniel made superb ceviche (the best we’ve ever tasted!) from the catch and we still had plenty to take home for dinner. We’d definitely recommend this boat and crew!

success isnt always a count or weight while fishing. we never hooked up on bill fish or big tuna. had a great time and reeled in other varieties until i was relieved when the time was up.

Had a great time with Hansel & Daniel on the Papi Chula charter catching a 55” Wahoo that was made into sashimi within 30 minutes!  Had a great time and will be back again.
