I have often said as I watched that Charlie is a really well traveled person...Always impressive with how well he knows his surroundings and very intriqued with his undersanding...
Great video, you need to take more trips. Find some you can take the family on, the kids would love it and I think Sara would love it and have a great time.
I did a trip like this in 2008 out of Los Suenos and caught a world class rooster on a slow trolled live 18 inch snapper. Absolutely the best fighting fish I have ever fought. Looking forward to going back someday.
Love the video! I’ve been down to Rica 3 times now for Roosters, 3 guided trips and fishing every day those 3 weeks, only lost one rooster at my feet - one finicky fish!
Just got back from Jaco! Went offshore and went 1-7 on sailfish and 2-4 on yellowfin. Beautiful place out there! Glad you had a good time! Love the ugly stick too! Best rods made!
Absolutely loved this one,,,, you didn't look too healthy on those walks Nick, hope everything is OK, apart from the food poisoning looked like a great trip, I personally agree with you and Charlie on visiting the local markets, not everything has to be about the local resort, and the good at the various restaurants looked pretty awesome, am definitely going to subscribe to Charlie's chanell to see what he gets up to when not stanzing 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Thanks Tim! Appreciate you watching! Was a little sick then got the food poisoning which was awful. Dealing with some other stuff too but hope to get back to as close as my normal self asap
@StanzFam good to hear Nick,,,, take care and look forward to the next family fishing trip, Charlie catching catfish is good, but the daughters must be close to ready for Marlin season 😀
Haha we did too. Mountainside Airbnb in Uvita. Drove up to Quepos for a half day of mahi and later in the week a half day of roosterfish. Place is incredible
Hi Nick, always fun to see where you guys are fishing. We've seen Charlie along with you but always wonder where Frank the Tank is? Hardly see him anymore. Hope he's ok?
We used to spear those Pacific Black Snook. They can get huge compared to their Atlantic cousins and we speared alot of those too. Panama was a great place for fishing and spearfishing. Like Stanz but out of a 16' Boston Whaler😂😂😂. Didn't need anything bigger to get whatever we were after, including billfish. What good times. Never dove Costa Rica. Nice vid. BTW, there is no better Sunday breakfast than snook row with scrambled eggs, mixed, crispy bacon and toast.
I frequently go to CR. Always stay in Esterillos Oeste. I fish from the pangas there.straight west is the famous 26. My 14yo caught a 60lb mahi! I got again in 4 weeks. Fun and great place for kids because of all the wildlife.
We're going back to Costa Rica in 2 weeks, a little north of Quepos, closer to Jaco. I've never fished this far south along the coast and not normally this early in the spring. We're chartering the same size boat, rather than a bigger one for further out. I hope we have as much fun, but avoid the catfish - lol. Either way we'll get out for a day.
Great video!!! Thank you! If you would like to come back to the best country in the world, let me know... We can take you jigging and have you fishing in no time!!! Regards!!!
You've actually spent money to experience poverty and a very moderate level of fishing in hot and humid weather. When you get back to Florida you're going to appreciate it way better 😅
Man it looked beautiful down there in Costa Rica. Is it safe for tourists down there to just go and explore and check stuff out or do you have to be careful of where you go?
There’s a lot of places in the inner cities of America that are way more unsafe feeling to me than anywhere I’ve been in CR. Like nick said, you’re more likely to have the possibility of someone snatching your valuables if ya leave em on the beach when you go in the water. But we were there 10 days and never seen that happen personally
Go get checked for parasites brother , rampant in Costa Rica . Next time you need to hike Arenel volcano , and fish out of los suenos .Quepos is fished out ,compared to what it once was
I just wish some of your sizes is larger! For people like me with weird torsos I need one longer cause it looks like a belly shirt on me. Really want a rod…
@@StanzFam thank you! I also seen a post on Facebook from 1971 with bud n Mary’s in the background and a small article about a marlin and capt bill ballard, I tried to tag yall but it wouldn’t let me.
Oh and people need to quit bitchin about the little tiny sponsor adds very obscurely placed in the bottom right of the video. You barely notice it and you get great content FOR FREE. Don't be a dirt bag and complain!
Excellent video guys
The beauty of Costa Rica
Thank you

Thanks! Hopefully I get all of them to costa sometime in the near future
Man that looks like a large time! Really been enjoying the vids youve been putting out! Keep up the amazing content man.
Thanks! Will do!
Great video congratulations on the Snook. And I don't think I've ever seen Charlie with the most humble smile he's had after catching so many catfish
All I have is a humble smile. :)
@@BonaFideWorldGuide yeah but this smile was so sexy
Thanks for watching!
So happy to see you in my beautiful country. Hooe you had an amazing time here! 🤗
Thanks! We had a good trip! Made some memories for sure
Nice video Nick ! Those deeps were killer 😂 that snook had some protein for sure 💪
😂👊🏻

I just went this past February, had an amazing hilltop Airbnb, managed to catch a 41 inch rooster and some other fun fighting fish.
Very nice!
Haha we did too. Mountainside Airbnb in Uvita. Drove up to Quepos for a half day of mahi and later in the week a half day of roosterfish. Place is incredible

Thanks for watching! Sounds good! Hope to get back one day
Is it just me or does Nick kinda look like a young Steve Perry from Journey lol 😁 More so when he is clean shaven obviously
😀
His Raglan shirts are half price, go get one, they're absolutely awesome, just ordered another one...
Thanks Paul! Appreciate it
A friend of mine has a home in Jacko (probably misspelled that) but it looks amazing there !
Enjoy Capt's!
Thanks for watching!
Yes Sir, That was the Biggest Hound fish I have ever seen!
Now it will be immortalized in the vastness of the internet. I can finally retire comfortably from the competitive Hound Fish circuit.
@@BonaFideWorldGuide 😂
Lol
🏆
Tarikan ikan nya kuat sekali👍
Need to come fishing at Belize 🇧🇿 Nick😊
I almost have him convinced. See you on Ambergris Caye soon enough.
Hopefully one day soon!
Are you talking about Ray Rosher’s dehookers???
Ray makes some great ones!
R&R Tackle! The best in the business. Big Up to the Miss Britt crew.

Man it looked beautiful down there in Costa Rica. Is it safe for tourists down there to just go and explore and check stuff out or do you have to be careful of where you go?
We felt pretty safe every where. Just wouldn’t leave your phone on the beach etc

Go get checked for parasites brother , rampant in Costa Rica . Next time you need to hike Arenel volcano , and fish out of los suenos .Quepos is fished out ,compared to what it once was
I might have to get checked, 9 days later and stomach is still messed up. I saw are al 9 years ago but didn’t hike it, will put it in the list to do
I went on a charter with those captains before
I was invited to go to Costa Rica several years ago, but mother was on her last leg.
Need to take the skin off or it will taste like soap
Food poisoning is terrible
I just wish some of your sizes is larger! For people like me with weird torsos I need one longer cause it looks like a belly shirt on me. Really want a rod…
We may do a small run of 4X and 5X shirts locally this summer. Will post about it if so. I am waiting on new samples of the NickStick as well
@@StanzFam thank you! I also seen a post on Facebook from 1971 with bud n Mary’s in the background and a small article about a marlin and capt bill ballard, I tried to tag yall but it wouldn’t let me.
Do you have a link for the place you stayed at.?
can you find you shirts and hats at bud n Marys
Yes! Just not every design/style is on display. Also our online sales are just available online

I would rather have the catfish
😬
Rule number one. Never go out in the ocean with one motor..
Cats and Dogs
iron sand with magnet
I only saw two of those pull-ups and you said 10. You must’ve skipped a little bit on the film.
We edited them out, didn’t want to make it too boring
@@StanzFam OK I will let you slide.
Can you eat rooster fish
Some places they do but I think they release them in this area
Yeah if you want to eat snook you need to go to another country
No tip to the Ricans😢
Huh?
That's boat fishing not beach
In a boat along the beach 🤷🏻♂️
Sorry nick have to Unsubscribe to much C
Captain sucks
Charlie is annoying.
You're annoying.
Charlie ruins your videos he tries to take over get rid of him.
I think we should get rid of you, first.
Charlie is one of my best friends.
