Get ready to chase lovely fish, observe white-face monkeys, howler monkeys, Geoffroy’s tamarins, and a lot more! Not only you’ll have fun fishing but you’ll also see and learn a lot about the local flora and fauna. In addition, you’ll see transiting ships in the Panama Canal and Chagres River. Join Captain Miguel Gomez will make sure you enjoy your trip and have the best chance of landing a catch. The waters are calm, so seasickness shouldn’t be a problem.

The boat you’ll use is a restored 24’ fiberglass locally-made classic boat powered by a 55 HP Yamaha engine. It can fit 4 guests, uses VHF radio for navigation, and has got a livewell to provide live bait. It also features an ice box with ice so you can store your catch.
You and the captain will be targetting Peacock Bass, White Seabass, Tilapia, Jack Crevalle, and Snook by trolling, spinning, and popping on light tackle. You’re welcome to keep the fish you catch as well as bring kids on your trip.
Captain Miguel provides standard fishing rods, reels, and tackle along with lures and/or minnows. You’re welcome to bring your own equipment, just tell the captain before the trip. In that case, know that poppers for Peacock Bass work fine. You’re also covered for licenses, so just bring any snacks and drinks you want.
The taxi / Uber from your hotel to the Gamboa public dock shouldn’t cost more than $30 and it lasts for 45 minutes, so make sure you leave your hotel in time. If needed, I can also organize the transport for you with a third-party company as of $100 total.

Miguel is a great fisherman and host. We saw different monkeys, iguanas, crocodiles, and birds on the way out. This area is so nice that I would have been happy with just cruising around. But, we caught peacock bass and Oscar on top lure and live bait. Catching a peacock bass was a lifetime goal for me and we got two big ones. Totally recommend! I will be back! Thanks Miguel!
Thank you very much Michael for your trust booking with me. I had a blast today ! Many thanks for your great review and pictures !!
Captain Miguel was kind enough to introduce us to Monkey island while moving around several fishing locations. Miguel's boat is very adquately powered so your not spending more time traveling to the fishing spots than fishing. Miguel managed the time very well, and happily accommodated our request to focus on Peacock bass fishing. Finally, Miguel keeps your safety and well-being at the forefront of your experience; we we're Very Satisfied with all of the fish that we caught, and highly recommend. Mariposa
Our morning with Captain Miguel was outstanding. The boat was comfortable, and he took extra care for the safety and comfort of our group, some of whom were older and required greater physical care. He was a wonderful guide, taking us to see monkeys, finding the best places to fish, and even spotting an iguana swimming across the lake on our way back. We'd most definitely book with Captain Miguel again.
Thank you for booking with me, it was a pleasure to welcome you on board and makes you feel safe and comfortable. I had a great time with your group.
Great trip. The captain knows the area very well. Good personality. I will do the trip again.
Thank you very much Alex, my pleasure to host you and show you the area. Have safe travels !
