Fish On Panama – Panama City
+4Panama City has a fish with your name on it, so let Fish On Panama help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Alejandro is prepared to put you on fish.
These waters are known for Bonito, Mahi Mahi, Goliath Grouper, Red Grouper, Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Sierra Mackerel, Cubera Snapper, Albacore Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, and more – with any luck, they’ll make your reel scream. You can expect to do some spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
Fish On Panama welcomes kids aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. And, you can’t go wrong with snacks – luckily, Capt. Alex will have some on board!
Capt. Alex will bring you aboard a 31’ Pro-Sport sportfishing vessel with a capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.
You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. Don’t leave home without sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks for you on board.
Now, time to hit the water with Fish On Panama!

8 Hour Trip – 20 Fathom Trench on February 21, 2025
We did a 8 hour 20 fathom trip with 3 guys. The area is beautiful. The boat is clean and rides great. The capt and crew were very friendly. Fishing with them felt like they were our friends. We all had a great time. I really enjoyed it. Tried numerous fishing spots and lots of different fishing techniques. I would love to return and bring my little boys on this experience. Thank you Alex. We made great memories!

CPT Alex and his crew were amazing! Highly recommend using Fish On. If we had more time in Panama we would do another trip with him, no doubt at all!

8 Hour Trip – Otoque and Bona on February 29, 2024
Had a great time on the water with Alex and Eric. Both were very friendly, easy to communicate with, and extremely accommodating. I've been on a few dozen charter's now, so I know enough to navigate different options. The method's of fishing and areas that I chose were not really productive this time of year. Alex did inform me of this, but was more than happy to carry out my request knowing that we may not catch anything. Eric was very good with switching baits/method's as needed. Unfortunately, we did have to cut our trip a few hours short due to a gathering we had to attend. We were unable to do the last portion of jigging that would have most likely produced the most action, but this was on us, not the crew. The "Fish On" is a great, comfortable boat and is in very good condition. All in all, had a great time fishing with these two and would not hesitate to go again!
