Is there anything better than fishing? How about fishing for days on end? That's exactly what you'll get with Bungalu Fishing Lodge Panama!

Here you won't be far from remote lake waters, including some spots that only a local can show you.

Around here it's common to catch Peacock Bass, Tarpon, Snook, Jack Crevalle, and more. You'll target your catch by spinning, trolling, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Andres also offers fly fishing. For the more adventurous among you, there's bowfishing.

Your boat for the day is a 17' Tracker bass boat which has a fighting chair, and other essentials. Rods, reels, tackle, and fly fishing equipment are covered by the charter, as well as lures.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are never a bad idea – luckily, Capt. Andres will have some on board! Lodging comes with everything to make you feel at home.

You and your group will need to get a local fishing license before the trip. You can usually find that information online, or reach out to the lodging coordinator here.

Meals are not included in the price so be sure to learn more about your options ahead of time. Lastly, reach out below with any questions you have, such as what's available on-site and any essentials you should bring.

Capt. Andres runs trips out of Sabanitas aboard a 17' Tracker bass boat. These waters are known for Peacock Bass and Snook and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or fly fishing. With extensive knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
