Let me know about your operations. I always go fishing myself first whenever I go to new destinations before I bring other fishermen with me.
Panama is known for fabulous fishing, but you still need luck and go at the right time at the right place.
I am contacting with another operation in Panama.

Curtis,
I will definately keep you updated. Boat will be slipped in Panama City when not off on assignment. If you are ever down there, stop by an say hi to Adam.

BTW, JT and SteveD got a 245lb YFT yesterday (sunday) on an Accurate 12 w/ 80lb floro.......marathon battle, after 3hrs, the handle on the reel busted........after 2 more hours, the fish came to gaff........TOTAL of 5 hrs.....back-breaking fight right there.

Anyways, keep up the hard work....will payoff soon. We will definately stop by the property and if you are going to be there, you will have to come out on Boomer with us. -Matt-

Stopped in Panama for a day last year coming back from Ecuador. It is a beautiful country. I was supposed to have gone fishing back in January at the panama big game club with some friends. How far are you from there? They flew into David then took a boat down a river to the lodge.

ROBJA,

Panama big game is about an hour drive from us and then a "tinny" boat ride over to Boca Chica. To get to our area you would fly into David and then drive or cab it about an hour and 30 minutes. Once you get there...NOBODY around...it's awesome...

Kilsong, I do NOT have any operation there for know...just a dream and an empty savings account

My friend Chad has a great operation there and it is worth a go.

Make sure you put up a good report when you get back...

Talked to Chad yesterday briefly and he took some of his workers for a light afternoon trip and hit em' pretty good, I think he said 2 roosters, a pargo, a dozen sierra mackarel, and a bunch of jacks for the fun of it!

Go get em' ...

There is a chance I will be down there around that time...Will let ya know.
