Fresh Panama City Fishing Reports

Offshore pro pelagic fishing trip and mahi and sailfish trip are on the best time of the year to get big mahis , sailfish and marlin! Contact us for more info!

This week, we have been getting the first few rains of the season. This means nutrient-rich waters from the warmer South Pacific will attract microorganisms, which will then attract the upper stages of the food chain, in other words, bigger fish. Pelagics like tuna, mahi, sailfish, and Marlin will be our predominant bites until November. This day, as we were passing the deepest waters on the way to the Pearl Islands, with an average of 200 feet deep waters, we encountered huge bait balls full of diving birds, which gave us the first indicator of fish around while deciding where to throw lines we spotted some dolphins. There's something that we can tell with dolphins: tuna. We started shifting our lures to cedar blocks on our trolling lines and had our spinning lines with poppers ready to cast them. Whenever we got a bite on the trolling Lines, we immediately cast those poppers and maximized tuna bites. Welcome to Panama game fishing mecca! Enjoy the footage of this beautiful day of tuna fishing in Panama.

The wind is starting to shift, north winds are dying slowly, driftlines are forming and mahi are showing up... In a couple of days we expect the mahi bite to be on fire!

The sea was a little rough but the bite was on fire! the minute we arrived and deployed the spread we got hit. We had multiple, double, triple and even cuadruple hits during the day. We stoped at a calm bay to have lunch were me and Justin (mate) prepared 2 different dish of Albacore Carpaccio for our dear guests. We closed the day jigging in a deep reef around Chamá Island were we got a nice Lane Snapper... what a wonderful day! Tight lines!

Around San Jose island the bite was hot this past week, catching almacos jack and red sanapper what a figth!

Our objective for the day was to catch some Albacores, Sierras and do some Jigging near the Pearl Islands. On our way there, we saw a Sailfish Jumping (off Season, there are not supposed to be around), That put me and Danilo on our toes, we quickly deployed the teasers and a 5 rods sailfish spread! in no time we had that fish the line and our 12 year old guest was engaged in a fight with the fish of his dreams. After a good 25 minutes our angler had that hefty sail right next to the boat!, after a quick pic, the sailfish was released to fight another day! After trying for a second one, we headed close to the island were we encountered the albacores and sierras, we had bite after bite until it was time to head back... what a great day in the water!
