A reason on it&#8217;s own to come visit. I picked Boquete as my home town. \u00a0From cool mountain weather, I am an hour to the boat on the Pacific Coast!!<\/p>\n<p>The Republic of Panama offers some of the most unique sport fishing in the world, thanks to its location, bordered by Costa Rica to the west and Colombia at the southeastern end. and while the Caribbean Sea laps the northern shores, it\u2019s the\u00a0placid Pacific to\u00a0the south that holds the action we seek.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of lodges and fishing operations throughout the country. One thing they share is the general ease of access. Most visitors arrive at Tocumen International Airport in Panama City, departing for the lodges on the coast via regional airlines, charter carriers or private shuttles. Panama City is renowned as one of the most beautiful capitals in Central America, making for a terrific overnight destination in its own right. The dry season generally runs from January through April. From May to December, afternoon thunderstorms are frequent, but it usually doesn\u2019t rain all day in most locations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block ads \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<p>For fishing, the main draw in Panama is undoubtedly the black marlin. These pugnacious brawlers are typically found in good numbers here November through March, and they are usually caught on live bait. Big Pacific sailfish fill in the gaps throughout most of the year, and you shouldn\u2019t overlook the excellent blue marlin fishery. The yellowfin tuna show up in big numbers in Panama too, with some trophy-size tuna weighing over 150 pounds or more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block image \">\n<div id=\"page-2\" class=\"st-page-break\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"media media-element-container media-default full-width shareable\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"full-width shareable\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/1000_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=HZxdh2HF&amp;fc=50,50\" alt=\"tropic star lodge\" data-325src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/325_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=La3uPgpN&amp;fc=50,50\" data-2000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/2000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=344RyUxo&amp;fc=50,50\" data-1000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/1000_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=HZxdh2HF&amp;fc=50,50\" data-800src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/800_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=n39ghHwp&amp;fc=50,50\" data-655src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/655_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=8Umbv8Ps&amp;fc=50,50\" data-500src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/500_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=AP-LVSy8&amp;fc=50,50\" data-380src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/380_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=klEoE9Ml&amp;fc=50,50\" data-250src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/250_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=6irPZnGY&amp;fc=50,50\" data-200src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/200_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=kFIM3niF&amp;fc=50,50\" data-150src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/150_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=yamRYS4k&amp;fc=50,50\" data-100src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/100_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=SbLxFhwu&amp;fc=50,50\" data-75src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/75_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=ecUiW9t9&amp;fc=50,50\" data-50src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/50_16x9\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/tropic-star-lodge-sport-fishing-lodge.jpg?itok=3lOAur7Y&amp;fc=50,50\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"field-body\">\n<p>Tropic Star Lodge is the country\u2019s oldest and best-known sport-fishing lodge, famous for its fleet of classic Bertrams as well as great fishing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field-credit\">\n<p>Jessica Haydahl Richardson<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/news-from-panama\/gone-fishing-with-john-gorman-on-the-chenin-iii-a-66-foot-buddy-davis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gone Fishing with John Gorman<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<h2>Tropic Star Lodge<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Pi\u00f1as Bay<\/strong><br \/>\nsituated on the edge of the incredibly scenic Pi\u00f1as Bay, roughly 150 miles southeast of Panama City, Tropic Star Lodge has been attracting anglers since it first opened as Club de Pesca in 1963. Over the years, more world records have been set here than in any other fishing lodge in the world \u2014 a testament to the amazing opportunities that await its visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Guests arrive on a chartered flight from Panama City, landing near an Embera Indian village. A short ride through the jungle and a 10-minute boat ride later, you\u2019re standing on the lodge\u2019s main dock and an iconic fleet of 31-foot Bertrams await on their moorings in the bay. For those who might not have visited Tropic Star recently, there have been some considerable upgrades in the operation. The dining room has been remodeled, as well as one of the guest suites, with additional renovations currently underway. Also, under construction is a massage and spa area, among many other improvements on the land side. The fleet of Bertrams is also being upgraded. During our visit in July 2018, the prototype had already been put into service, with quieter, more fuel-efficient engines plus an air-conditioned salon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Fishing<\/strong><br \/>\nThe captains and crews at Tropic Star Lodge are among <a class=\"linkTargets-processed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/tropic-star-lodge-panama-world-records\">the best live-bait fishermen in the world<\/a>, but are equally adept at pulling lures or rigging Panama strip baits, which are especially productive for sailfish. However, most days will nearly always start with bait-fishing and slow-trolling along the Zane Grey Reef at first light. The captains collectively work together to find the bite as they spread out in search of pelagics as the day wears on. Visiting sport-fishers are welcome to anchor in the bay, with fuel and guest dining available at the lodge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block ads \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<p>The black marlin usually begin to arrive in the fall and bite well through January and February, depending on the conditions. The action for <a class=\"linkTargets-processed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/blue-marlin\">blue marlin<\/a> usually begins a little earlier and runs a bit longer, and the tuna fishing can be excellent during this time as well. The sailfish bite picks up in the spring and is usually good all year, peaking in the summer months. The lodge is closed for maintenance from October through late November, but otherwise, expect reliably consistent offshore action plus five-star dining and service from one of the sport\u2019s most renowned fishing destinations.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"full-width shareable\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/1000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=dJoB1c0A&amp;fc=50,50\" alt=\"sport fish panama island lodge\" data-325src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/325_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=s-Bv3Fqy&amp;fc=50,50\" data-2000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/2000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=d9HSK7u2&amp;fc=50,50\" data-1000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/1000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=dJoB1c0A&amp;fc=50,50\" data-800src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/800_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=JoX_L30q&amp;fc=50,50\" data-655src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/655_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=8zTbC6MU&amp;fc=50,50\" data-500src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/500_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=IIb-6LF9&amp;fc=50,50\" data-380src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/380_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=QmFwtbs7&amp;fc=50,50\" data-250src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/250_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=OGeWeXDf&amp;fc=50,50\" data-200src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/200_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=IhkUmPiP&amp;fc=50,50\" data-150src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/150_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=u2bDbx-V&amp;fc=50,50\" data-100src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/100_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=tWgsZxBh&amp;fc=50,50\" data-75src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/75_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=8XPbvDpi&amp;fc=50,50\" data-50src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/50_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/sport-fish-panama-island-lodge.jpg?itok=n3PpepDn&amp;fc=50,50\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block image \">\n<p>My Favorite Place in Panama!!!<\/p>\n<div class=\"field-body\"><a href=\"http:\/\/panamaadvisoryinternationalgroup.com\/blog\/news-from-panama\/gone-fishing-captain-shane-sport-fish-panama\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00a0Gone Fishing with\u00a0Captain Shane<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"field-credit\">\n<div class=\"st-block image \">\n<div class=\"media media-element-container media-default full-width shareable\">\n<div class=\"caption-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"field-body\">\n<p>Sport Fish Panama Island Lodge hosts just one group of anglers at a time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field-credit\">\n<p>Courtesy Sport Fish Panama Island Lodge<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<h2>Sport Fish Panama Island Lodge<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Isla Parida<\/strong><br \/>\nlodge owner capt. shane jarvis originally moved to Panama from Miami in the late 1990s to help his father build a vacation house for the family\u2019s fishing adventures.

July through September are prime months for a shot at a big black marlin, from 500 to over 1,000 pounds, as this is the time of year when the large females show up to spawn.<\/p>\n<p>Sport Fish Panama Island Lodge only works with one group of anglers at a time, so essentially, the lodge is your private getaway during your stay there.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block ads \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<div id=\"page-5\" class=\"st-page-break\"><\/div>\n<h2>Paradise Fishing Lodge<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Quebrada de Piedra<\/strong><br \/>\nparadise fishing lodge is located just south of David, Panama, in Quebrada de Piedra, Chiriqui. Once again, the location of the lodge is a key factor, and not too far from the renowned Coiba National Marine Park. The park consists of Coiba, the largest island in Central America, and 37 surrounding islands and islets, all of which are about 30 miles off the Panamanian coast.<\/p>\n<p>Paradise Fishing Lodge sprawls over 25 acres, with 360 degrees of breathtaking views. Guests stay in private, air-conditioned cottages, with a large pool, swim-up bar, huge hot tub and more. The lodge\u2019s all-inclusive packages are based on five full days of fishing and six nights\u2019 accommodations, which includes food and beverages with an open bar. Also included are the spectacular ocean views from every cabin, pool and restaurant on the property. Lodge owner Chad Marquis relates that, even during the rainy season, the action offshore can still be off the charts on any given day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Fishing<\/strong><br \/>\nBecause of the large area to cover around Coiba, Paradise Fishing Lodge operates a lineup of high-quality center-consoles, which enable them to access different fishing areas throughout the day. The tackle is high-end, and kept in good shape by the professional captains and crews, many of whom have fished these waters for generations.<\/p>\n<p>Black marlin season historically kicks off in January and runs well into late May and early June most years, with reliably solid fishing throughout that time frame. Blue marlin can be encountered in these waters year-round, and can be a great alternative if the blacks are not cooperating. The big yellowfin tuna invade the waters around Coiba from January through May as well, so be ready for a real fight should you encounter one of these giants. Casting big topwater poppers on spinning tackle at smaller yellowfins is also a blast.<\/p>\n<p>Marquis says, \u201cWe pride ourselves in the extremely personal attention we give to every detail of every aspect of your vacation. That ranges from your room to the boat, from the dock to the dining and everything in between. Within five minutes of arriving here, we think you will understand why we named it Paradise Fishing Lodge.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block image full-bleed\">\n<div class=\"media media-element-container media-default full-bleed shareable\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"full-bleed shareable\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/2000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=CQhMLY2f&amp;fc=50,50\" alt=\"black marlin leaping from water\" data-325src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/325_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=8g3hMPcT&amp;fc=50,50\" data-2000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/2000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=CQhMLY2f&amp;fc=50,50\" data-1000src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/1000_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=CsSZyCit&amp;fc=50,50\" data-800src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/800_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=XQ59KHmF&amp;fc=50,50\" data-655src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/655_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=9mNhogSg&amp;fc=50,50\" data-500src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/500_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=EPctMqUb&amp;fc=50,50\" data-380src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/380_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=467SS85x&amp;fc=50,50\" data-250src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/250_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=KogS_cCn&amp;fc=50,50\" data-200src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/200_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=8uQ5ikgg&amp;fc=50,50\" data-150src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/150_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=33qzpYQ5&amp;fc=50,50\" data-100src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/100_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=BCp-xUc0&amp;fc=50,50\" data-75src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/75_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=AD_T2g1s&amp;fc=50,50\" data-50src=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/sites\/marlinmag.com\/files\/styles\/50_1x_\/public\/images\/2018\/11\/black-marlin-gulf-of-chiriqui.jpg?itok=reE3U9dF&amp;fc=50,50\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"field-body\">\n<p>Black marlin are the number-one target species for offshore anglers in Panama, although trophy-sized yellowfin tuna are also abundant here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field-credit\">\n<p>Evan Kruger<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<div id=\"page-6\" class=\"st-page-break\"><\/div>\n<h2>Cebaco Bay Sportfishing Club<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Isla Cebaco<\/strong><br \/>\nlodge owner jim weise first visited Cebaco Bay in 1989 while traveling back to Panama City from Hannibal Bank.

Guests live aboard the 110-foot mothership, <em>Journey Bay<\/em>, during their stay. The floating lodge was an oil-field supply boat in the Gulf of Mexico before being converted to a sport-fishing mothership in 2005. There are double- and triple-occupancy staterooms, plus a large, open entertainment deck complete with lounge chairs, hammocks and more, perfect for unwinding with friends after a long day fishing. <em>Journey Bay<\/em>\u2019s private chef ensures that no one goes hungry either.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block ads \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<p><strong>The Fishing<\/strong><br \/>\nWeise and his team have spent the past three decades exploring the region\u2019s hot spots. In fact, one of the best \u2014\u00a0Aguja Reef \u2014 is just 14 miles from the mothership. Rising to 120 feet from 300 feet of water, Aguja lies just 5 miles inside the 100-fathom line and holds vast numbers of bonito year-round. The bait attracts consistent numbers of black marlin.<\/p>\n<p>Also accessible is the well-known Hannibal Bank, which is located west of Coiba and south of the Gulf of Chiriqui. The deepwater seamount produces current upwellings that attract and hold bait, as well as blue and black marlin and some seriously large tuna. Other game fish, such as sailfish, mahi, wahoo and all kinds of bottomfish, can be caught year-round at Hannibal Bank too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block enews \">\n<div class=\"enews-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"email_opt_in_wrapper\">\n<form class=\"email-opt-in-form\" accept-charset=\"UTF-8\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"email-opt-in-form-header\">\n<div class=\"email_opt_in_right_rail_title\">We know bait and switch<\/div>\n<p>And this isn\u2019t one<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"email-opt-in-form-input\">\n<div class=\"form-item form-type-textfield form-item-email\"><input class=\"form-text required edit-email\" maxlength=\"128\" name=\"email\" size=\"60\" type=\"text\" value=\"\" placeholder=\"Enter email address\" \/><\/div>\n<p><input class=\"form-submit edit-submit\" name=\"op\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Sign Up\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"legal-text\">By submitting, you agree to our <a class=\"linkTargets-processed\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marlinmag.com\/privacy-policy\">privacy policy<\/a> and to receive updates &amp; offers from Marlin Magazine<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"email-opt-in-response\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"st-block markdown text-left \">\n<p>The fleet of game boats includes four completely restored 31-foot Bertrams as well as two outboard-powered 33-foot World Cats, all outfitted with top-of-the-line tackle and electronics.<\/p>\n<p>Marlin season at Cebaco Bay generally runs from December through April, where the northerly winter winds bring stronger currents and nutrient-rich upwellings to the seamounts and reefs. While conditions can be a bit windy, fishing in the lee of the islands offers protection on the sportiest days. Tuna fishing peaks from May through September, and while this is during the rainy season, Cebaco is one of the driest spots in the country, so it\u2019s generally very fishable and calm.

This project is destined to become one of the top sport-fishing destinations in Panama. A Ritz-Carlton Reserve, beach club, and home sites, residences and apartments \u2014 as well as a 1,000-yard runway \u2014 are just 20 minutes by air from Panama City, and certainly are key components to the project. The 48-slip marina accommodates vessels 60 to 240 feet, is protected by a large breakwater and provides easy access to the fishing grounds nearby. The marlin fishing is outstanding in this region, with good numbers of extra-large black marlin caught here recently.
