My wife and I just returned from four (4) days of fishing with Capt Skeet and his fine crew. Even though Capt Skeet said the fishing was slow, we had an epic time, and over our 4 days fishing we were 1 for 2 on blue marlin (275 lbs), 20+ yellowfin tuna in the 25-35 lb range, 9+ mahi maki, and 7 sailfish. Capt Skeet allowed me to use my 16 wt fly rod to catch quite a few yellowfin tuna, at least until my arms couldn't handle any more. He and his crew worked super hard to make sure we were successful. The Bushwacker is a comfortable sport fishing vessel, and the crew made some pretty tasty sandwiches every day for lunch! My wife and I had a fantastic time and sincerely enjoyed being hosted by Capt. Skeet. We plan on fishing with him again, and I would recommend booking with him over anyone else in the region.

I have been fishing the Pacific waters off Panama and Costa Rica for over 24 years and have fished with every major fishing outfitter there is. Captain Skeet has more knowledge of the fish and the waters than all of them combines. He is a true professional who is willing to share his knowledge and fishing skills.He is also deeply passionate about your group catching fish. We went on the water with Captain Skeet for three days in mid August and we slammed the sail fish , mahi and even bottomed fish for grouper. Myself and friends cannot wait to get back on Bushwacker and nail some Blues. Thank you Capt Skeet see you this winter.

My son and I had a full day of fishing off shore with Skeet and his crew. Caught 6 sail fish, 1 Mahi and an Albacore. Boat, gear, skipper and crew were all first class. Fishing with a pro meant that we could catch versus trolling out over areas that weren’t productive.
Honest and honorable! Important when you’re paying. All safety equipment and electronics are first rate. You’re not fishing with an amateur.
I hope to get back and catch some Marlin with Skeet and crew.

We fished with Captain Skeet on the Bushwacker for the fifth time and as always he did not disappoint. He and his crew are extremely professional and the and the Bushwacker is comfortable and setup to catch fish.
We love Flamingo Bay and the surrounding area. Check out the Bushwacker and Capt. Skeet.

Captain skeet and his crew on the Bushwacker were all very very professional and knowledgeable. It was an all around top notch private fishing charter from start to finish. Possibly a day we’ll never forget. We had a great day going 2/3 on Mahi and 2/3 on Blue Marlin!! He is definitely the boat to use when coming to this area to visit!! Regardless of the day we had you can see he did his absolute best to get on us the fish and his mates were just as good and quick with rebaiting and getting lines in the water. Highly recommend. -Mike

Captain Skeet and crew run a world class sportfishing charter. We spent a fantastic two days on the Bushwacker.
I have fished many charters in many locations and this one tops my list!
The crew works very hard and are constantly trying to get you on the fish.

Skeet and his deck hands are the best of the best. Fishing trip of a lifetime. If you go fishing in Flamingo Bay Costa Rica I would always fish with Skeet on the Bushwacker. We will be going back for sure. Best experience ever. Thanks Capt. Skeet. You are an amazing Guide.

I have fished all over the world, with top captains and winning boats, both competitively and leisurely, and the Bushwacker and Capt Skeet are among the best! Part of my family and another family to Costa Rica on vacation that included a day of fishing. This 42 Bertram is a fish catching machine! It's perfectly maintained, the tackle, mates, food, and equipment were all incredible. Great family day coupled with great fishing. We had 15 sailfish in the baits, caught and released 11. We WILL be back and ONLY on this boat again soon! Tight lines......Kelley Erwin, Houston, TX.

I just fished with Skeet for my 2nd time. I went by myself this time around and i caught 9 Sailfish! While i was fighting one sail i had 4 sails swimming behind it. Another time i had 2 sails swimming behind my fish. We had a Wahoo take our bait and a Dorado come check it out.
Skeet is hands down the best capt i have fished with outside the US. He has 2 very good deckhands and his boat and equipment are top notch. I'm already planning our trip for 2017 with Skeet!

Radaelli,
Meu barco, Bushwacker, é um 42 Bertram localizado em Flamingo Bay, Costa Rica. Você pode visitar o meu site para ver o barco e minha experiência. Eu posso levar até 6 pessoas. Também não há gastos ocultos como alguns dos outros barcos na Costa Rica. Bait, tackle, gelo e bebidas, bem como frutas frescas em meio dia e almoços em dias completos estão incluídos no preço da carta. Todo o equipamento de pesca é mantido como novo. O barco é climatizado e está sempre bem conservado para segurança e para evitar problemas antes de uma viagem ou no mar. Normalmente saímos às 7:00 e retornamos às 16:30 nos dias completos e 7:00 às 11:30 nos primeiros dias. Eu não posso competir preço sábio com os pequenos barcos e nenhum dos barcos aqui pode competir comigo por qualidade, conforto, experiência e acima de tudo segurança. Sou um dos poucos capitães que falam inglês e o único com uma licença da Guarda Costeira dos EUA, certificado pela International Game Fish Association, um capitão preferido da Marlin University e com experiência mundial. Também ganhei o Top Captain Award da The Billfish Foundation por marcar o maior número de veleiros no Oceano Pacífico em 2013. Em 2015, fiquei em 2º lugar na Papagayo Cup, 2º lugar no Torneio Internacional de Bote de El Salvador e em 2º lugar no geral. Presidential Cup Series, além de ter o 2º lugar na categoria de pescador. Eu tenho pescado profissionalmente desde 1981. Também o barco que você vê no meu site é o barco real que você estará pescando, ao contrário de algumas outras operações aqui. A única "isca e interruptor" comigo é para o peixe e não os clientes. Eu não levo você em "apenas uma viagem de barco" ou uma viagem "genérica", mas tento personalizar cada viagem de acordo com os clientes que eu tenho para o dia e qual método ou espécie eles gostariam de direcionar. Eu posso ser contatado por e-mail ou meus números de telefone estão listados abaixo, bem como no meu site. Nós pescamos no mar por Marlin, Sailfish, Dolphin (Dorado) e atum em dias inteiros. Em meio dia pegamos Roosterfish, Dolphin (Dorado), Wahoo, atum pequeno (5 # -25 #), Amberjack, Jack Crevalle, Cavala e Bonito.
Bushwacker Half Day-Inshore- $ 1100
- Como a pesca em torneios de “meio dia”. Corra onde precisamos correr e pescar um período máximo de tempo nas águas que produzam a maior probabilidade de uma boa captura costeira. Uma viagem de 4 ½ horas partindo às 7:00 da manhã e retornando às 11:30 da manhã. Inclui frutas frescas, lanches e bebidas.
Normal Full Day-Inshore- $ 1500
- Corrida mínima e um dia inteiro de pesca costeira. Uma viagem de 9 ½ horas partindo às 7:00 e retornando às 16:30. Inclui frutas frescas, lanches e bebidas e almoço
Bushwacker Full Day-Offshore- $ 1950
Nossa especialidade. Como a pesca do torneio. Um dia inteiro em que corremos para as áreas produtivas de pesca, passando o dia todo na área produtiva e correndo todo o caminho para casa. Sem limitações e desperdício de tempo vasculhando áreas improdutivas. Para o verdadeiro pescador otimizar seu tempo na água. Uma viagem de 9 ½ horas partindo às 7:00 e retornando às 16:30. Inclui frutas frescas, lanches e bebidas e almoço.
* Estas taxas são para o barco, não por pessoa.
Dê uma olhada no meu site do Shutterfly para ver fotos de pesca de algumas de minhas cartas. Você também pode ver meus comentários de clientes no Trip Advisor
