Panama Fishing Report | Tropic Star Lodge

Panama Fishing Report - Sept. 3 to Sept. 17, 2011

September has once again proven to be a great month for Marlin fishing at Pi�as Bay. Although we have been experiencing more than average rainfall, the crews still managed to get our guests on the action. It?s been difficult at times to find bonito (our favorite marlin bait) but there are lots of Skipjack Tunas out on the 100 fathom curve. It takes some extra skill to get a good hookup on these 8-15 lb livies but as you know, our crews are some of the absolute best in the world. There are also good numbers 60-100 lb Yellowfin Tuna patrolling the drop-off and some guests did manage to get into the great action. Guy Harvey was also here this week filming his latest billfish documentary. His buddy Pat Ford, who I might add is an outstanding photographer, took some fantastic shots of Black and Blue Marlin as well as Yellowfin Tunas and huge Dorado.
