Captain Bill Kieldsen grew up in northern Indiana where he enjoyed fishing with a fly rod. After graduating from Purdue University, where he played basketball and was a member of PHI DELTA THETA fraternity, he joined IBM for two years, acquiring the knowledge to run his charter business in a very professional manner.

Bill's background in biology and his use of scientific methods, combined with his lifetime of experience fishing in tournaments and fishing recreationally all over the world enable him to produce fish when others cannot.

Having once made the transition from fresh to saltwater fishing himself, Bill is adept at teaching the new techniques necessary for a saltwater novice.

With 32 years of world experience, Bill looks forward to showing you where the big fish are.

Costa Rica, affectionately known as the “Little Switzerland of Central America”, is well known for the premium that it places on peace, education and democracy. Only 70 miles wide and 200 miles long, the average temperature is 80 degrees year round. 

In addition to great fishing, there is plenty to do at the Manuel Antonio National Park, home of nine active volcanoes, rain forest canopy tours, white water rafting and kayaking.  Nature lovers will be entranced by sloths, white faced and howler monkeys, coatimundis, raccouns, iguanas and parrots.

We are located in the Los Suenos Resort, a billion dollar resort rated one of the top ten in the world. The Los Suenos Resort is on the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica, 30 miles north of Quepos and an hour and 45 minute drive from the international airport in San Jose - the capital of Costa Rica. Fisherman will be please to find that they can find accomodations in price ranges from $200 to $1800 at the resort, or for under $100 in nearby Playa Jaco, only 3 miles away.
