Panama GEM Charters - Viking 46'

panama-gem-charters-viking-46

There are only a few places in the world oceans where anglers can target black Marlin consistently. Piñas bay, Panama, is right at the TOP of the list. The Marlin fishing at the famous Zane Grey reef during the winter season is like nowhere else on the planet (the largest fish ever caught on this reef was a 1300 lb Black Marlin, which was famously filmed by Guy Harvey). The sheer variety of species that can be targeted in the seas surrounding Piñas Bay water is incredible. World-class amenities on board.

On this half-day trip, we will do trolling, popping, and jigging. You will have enough time to glimpse what Panama waters have in store and maybe even come back with a nice catch. It could be anything from a Mahi Mahi to Snapper, Mackerel, and much more. The crew will supply all the gear, as well as soft drinks and some beer. You should bring sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a camera. This package is great for novice anglers, families, and groups of friends on vacation.

You should pack sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a camera. This is a good option for avid anglers.

Full Day Trip – Taboga Island

Head to the Pearl Islands Archipelago and sample some of the finest fish that these fisheries hold. There are many Wahoo, Mahi, Mackerels, and Snapper here, and you're going to love it. The scenery's striking, and experienced fishermen will have enough time to explore the waters. Professional gear is waiting for you onboard fully rigged, but you should bring sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a camera.
