Fishing in Panamá

Panama fishing charters unlock access to one of the world's premier sportfishing destinations, renowned for its exceptional variety and year-round action. Anglers target massive Blue and Black Marlin in deep offshore waters, particularly around hotspots like Hannibal Bank and Isla Montuosa, where Sailfish and Yellowfin Tuna also thrive. The Pacific Coast's nutrient-rich currents create ideal conditions for pelagic giants, with Wahoo and Mahi-Mahi adding explosive action to any excursion.

Nearshore ecosystems teem with hard-fighting Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper, while the labyrinthine Panama Canal offers legendary inshore opportunities. Here, trophy Tarpon exceeding 100 pounds patrol the brackish waterways alongside Snook, creating unforgettable battles amidst lush mangrove forests. The country's unique geography allows anglers to experience bluewater trolling, reef fishing, and river casting—all within a single trip.

Private Panama fishing charters cater to every preference, from half-day inshore adventures to multi-day offshore expeditions. With no fishing license required and professionally equipped boats available nationwide, accessing these world-class fisheries has never been easier. Whether targeting billfish in the open ocean or sight-casting for inshore species, Panama delivers unparalleled diversity and consistent action for anglers at every skill level.

Panamá Fishing Seasons

January

The most popular month for Black Marlin. You can hook also hook up Yellowfin Tuna, big Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, and other species. It’s the perfect excuse to leave the cold at home and enjoy the hot action!

February

The exciting offshore adventure continues into February with Marlin, Sailfish and various Tunas. You can test your mettle against several species of Jacks that are excellent this time of year.

March

The famous Roosterfish can be reliably targeted during March. Cubera Snapper bite like crazy, while Striped Marlin start moving in closer to the coastline. Yellowfin Tuna is voracious and a popular target for many anglers.

April

Inshore anglers can look forward to the action getting even more exciting. Anglers looking to beat their personal best on Roosterfish should head out, ready for a fight. Schools of Yellowfin Tuna show up around Piñas Bay.

May

The wind starts blowing from the south, bringing a lot of Sailfish with it. They come in as close as a couple of miles off the shore, so if you’re looking for a picture to brag about, now’s the time.

June

Sailfish season is in full swing, with multiple bites per day being common. Other pelagics like Blue, Black, and Striped Marlin are still good. Looking for a record Roosterfish? Specimens weighing over 70 lb have been caught in June.

July

If you aren’t sure what fish you want to go after, July is the month for you. Fishing is productive for a number of species like Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Roosterfish, Snappers, Groupers, and others!

August

The temperature is quite comfortable, the only sweat you’ll break is from the red-hot Marlin action. Bring a waterproof jacket on your fishing trip anyway, as occasional showers can occur.

September

Wahoo has arrived in full force and anglers are targeting it left, right, and center. Black and Blue Marlin fishing is still excellent, so remember to bring a camera to capture these incredible fish.

October

If you’re not looking to reel in numbers but trophies, this is the month for you. Big Cubera Snapper and large Roosterfish can be hooked up in bays along the Pacific Coast.

November

Mahi Mahi, Black and Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna – the list of excellent targets goes on. The rainy season ends in November and debris-lines from the past season can make for excellent feeding grounds for fish.

December

It might be hard to decide on one species to target. Luckily, December helps with that! Black and Blue Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Yellowfin and Blackfin Tuna, Roosterfish, and more are all excellent this time of year.
