Marlin Fishing Experience with El Jefe Sport Fishing
At El Jefe Sport Fishing, we have a long-standing tradition of finding the fish and are well respected in the sport fishing community. Our fleet holds several big fish records and regularly competes in some of the world’s top sport fishing tournaments.
With the best fleet and experienced crew, we deliver world-class offshore fishing adventures.
Marlin Fishing:
We’re excited to offer a one-of-a-kind Marlin fishing experience during the “Green Slam Season” (May – December), and in many cases, year-round based on availability. This true offshore journey takes you 40–60 miles deep into the Pacific in search of magnificent blue, black, and striped marlin.
Costa Rica is famous for its FAD (Fish Aggregating Devices) fishing, making it a top destination for Marlin enthusiasts.
Our expert crew ensures a smooth and thrilling experience from start to finish. As one customer said, “This was the best fishing trip of my life!”
The trip usually lasts 8–12 hours on the water, filled with action, views, and unforgettable memories.
