Panama Fishing Charters - 2008 Specials - July Through September

Save up to $1023 per person

July through September are great months for fishing marlin and sailfish in Panama.  Inshore fishing is also exceptional with an abundance of rooster fish, snapper and grouper.  Calm seas, sunny days and late afternoon or evening showers are the norm.  With no other fishing boats in sight this makes for an unforgettable sport fishing trip. This last quarter was one of our best seasons yet (scroll down to see what our clients are saying below).

Fishing News:
marlinSeptember 2007: Wahoo to 50 lbs. were everywhere. I lost count early on. Small yellow fin tuna were hitting on top water—exciting action! Lots of small dorado, yellow snapper, blue jack, bonito, and rainbow runners kept the boys busy with too many jack and houndfish to keep track of. Oh yeah, we ran into a couple of 350 lb. Black Marlin too...I don't know why anyone would call August/September the "off" season. It rained on us once during the day, the weather was reasonably cool, and there was no one else fishing anywhere in the area. The seas boiled with life. We probably could have nailed more marlin but the boys wanted to taste everything the area had to offer.  Bruce Morris

August 2007: Off  Season Marlin - last 8 groups (including last week in April).  Below all  released alive - with all live bait we only use circle hooks.  Love party-2 blue marlin ~ McDonald party-2 black Marlin-1 800lb. ~ Dempsey party--no marlin ~ Charles Party-1 black marlin ~ Asherl, Perez, Sinclair party-1 black marlin ~ Olivera, Hunter, Amador party-no marlin but hooked a big black on a surface popper inside of 20ft. from the boat and when hooked came clear out of the water and jumped 4 more times (luckily away from the boat) then the popper pulled out ~.Chong party-2 black marlin ~ Everett party- 1 blue marlin -Captain Lee Campbell

July, 2007 – Here I am back in the water taxi from Pedregal Marina to Isla Boca Brava, home of the Panama Big Game Fishing Club. This will be my fifth time there... I decided to stay in shore on the first day hooking up on Sierra, jacks and roosters. This is an easy boat ride working the small island groups and bottom structures around Boca Brava in calm seas. The action was good on light tackle. The next two days were reserved for my favorite area Montuosa Island and the nearby Hannibal Bank.  The big Dorado and big tuna are not around this time of year although I caught enough for the table and some sashimi for appetizers. The Wahoo were on the small side, about 20 – 25#, but, in abundance (4 on board in 15 minutes) with a total of 7 until I decided to quit. Now – the reason I go there – Marlin. I picked up one each of the two days out there in the 350# class on live bait. No backing down on these babies for me. It’s strictly “mano-a-mano” on 80# test so you can expect to be in the chair around 45 minutes per fish. Aloha, Howard Chong, Jr. Honolulu, Hawaii

May - June 2007 Tuna fishing with surface poppers was all you wanted but smaller fish running from 10 to 80 lb. The first week in May we got some tuna over 100 lbs. and a few over 200 lbs. Black Marlin still good with 4 out of 5 groups catching a black. Fair wahoo action but they will pick up with August being the first real strong month for them. Had a few sails and some smaller dorado (dolphin) also. Inshore action was very good with snapper, rooster fish, sierra mackerel, blue jack and amber jack in good numbers.

Riley's yellow fin tuna
There is something about tracking fish by sight that activates the adrenalin flow like nothing else. We had hot and cold moments on the trip but the image of two and three hundred pound yellow fin tuna hurling themselves airborne, intent on murder or adultery upon anything in their path…baby it’s just too much. Man and boy I’ve fished those things on both the Atlantic and Pacific but the supreme numbers of big fish right in front of your beak made this a very special opportunity, what most would call a “once in a life time.” Standing on the bow of the boat and throwing them top water plugs was really sweet, as well as productive. We jumped on a red hot marlin bite one morning with a double hook up and hooked a third immediately afterwards. It’s fair to say we had some slow times but even the inshore fish were real trophies. This included a seventy-pound amber jack, eighty-pound roosterfish and a wondrous blue trevalle. These fish get big down in Panama, bigger than in Costa Rica, bigger than in Guatemala. The Panama Big Game Club lives up to its reputation.
