Welcome to Magical Mayhem Fishing Adventures! I'm Clinton Wilkinson, owner and host of your next fishing adventure in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. I've spent the last 25 years guiding on the Arkansas White River in the United States. As I got closer to retirement, I really wanted to chase my dream of fly fishing the salt. I took trips to Florida and Louisiana where I fell in love with saltwater fly fishing. Fly fishing for tarpon had me at hello, and after 12 years of catching them all over the state of Florida, I am a tarpon addict. I can't get enough of it!

Over those ten or twelve years, I noticed anglers fly fishing for tarpon all over Central America, calling them "Jungle Poons." I had to check this out. I took numerous trips to Nicaragua and Costa Rica fishing for tarpon roosters, mahi, and more. After countless hours, I developed a reputation with some of whom I consider to be some of the best at what they do, they are all seasoned for both fly fishing and conventional tackle. I am here to help you design your next adventure!


I have focused my efforts on two destinations in the countries of Nicaragua and Costa Rica; giant jungle tarpon in Nicaragua, and giant mahi and more in Costa Rica. Both are beautiful countries and have a lot to offer everyone from nature viewing to fishing charters. If you are ready for your next Nicaragua Fishing charter adventure or Costa Rica fishing charter experience, let Magical Mayhem be your guide.


Your seven-day excursion in Nicaragua promises an exciting fusion of thrilling fishing expeditions in a captivating ecosystem. Savor three delectable meals daily and comfortable lodging for a delightful stay for you and up to 8 of your friends and family. For six days, delve into guided fishing along the San Juan River, immersing yourself in the wilderness under Captain Clinton's team of experts. Cruise the San Juan River aboard one of 4 Inner console 24-foot boats, powered by cutting-edge Suzuki or Yamaha motors, ensuring a seamless voyage. Each boat seats two guests. Multiple boats are available for larger groups of up to 8.

Ensure compliance with local regulations by securing your fishing license before embarking on this meticulously planned adventure. Anticipate an unparalleled fishing charter experience with Magic Mayhem Fishing Adventures, owned by Captain Clinton Wilkinson from Tennessee, USA, with seasoned expertise amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Nicaragua and Costa Rica. 


If you are seeking a thrilling single-day adventure in Costa Rica, Magical Mayhem is your guide! We offer both inshore and offshore excursions and only require you to grab a taxi to meet at the boat ramp listed in the trip details! We offer a lunch meal for each trip to Costa Rica.
