A day of fishing in August

It's Tuna season in Pedasi ! Every year, from June to October, we have excellent Tuna fishing on the aptly named Tuna Coast of Panama. Tunas of all size can be found as close as 10 milles out, but it is usually difficult to hook the bigger ones because the small are usually faster and closer to the surface. If the weather is calm, we can run the 40 milles to a spot where there usually is only big ones. Here are a few pictures from a day of fishing for them we did at the end of August. We only had to run for one hour before we found them, and by noon, the 3 of us had each boated 3 tunas in the 30-40 kg range. For those who wonder, a tuna that size on spinning tackle is a lot of sport and so we went jigging for the rest of the day to rest our arms. It seems that the jigging is excellent this time of the year, as we had non-stop action on Amberjack, rainbow runner, smaller yellowfin tuna, bonito and snappers.
August is also the peak of the whale season and they are seen jumping and playing everyday.
For those interested in something a bit different than what we usually do, we will organise "tuna special" weeks for the summer/early fall 2015. During these weeks every morning we'll go looking for tuna, while the afternoons will be dedicated to the usual popping and jigging. We have already tested the formula, so more info on that with the next set of pictures.

On a side note, we have received all the new rental gear and it is perfect ! All information and rates regarding our different rental packages can be downloaded in the relevant section of our website.

C'est la saison des thons a Pedasi ! Tous les ans, de Juin a Octobre, la pêche au thon est excellente sur la bien nommée "Tuna Coast". Des thons de toutes tailles peuvent être trouv
és à moins de 10 milles des cotes, mais il est difficile d'attraper les gros quand les petits sont avec eux, car ces derniers sont plus rapides et souvent plus haut dans la colonne d'eau. Si le temps est stable, nous avons un très bon spot a 40 milles des cotes ou il n'y a generalement que des gros.
Voila quelques photos d'une journée de pêche effectuée fin aout. Ce jour la, il nous aura fallu moins d'une heure de bateau pour trouver les thons, et à midi chacun de nous en avait combattu 3 entre 30 et 40 kg. Sur du matériel spinning, c'est du sport et donc nous avons décidé d'aller pêcher au jig "pour se reposer les bras". La pêche au jig est excellente a cette période de l'année et les touches se sont enchainées: sérioles, rainbow runner, snappers, petits thons jaunes et bonites.
Aout est également le cœur de la saison des baleines et tous les jours, on peut en voir plusieurs sauter et jouer.
Pour ceux qui sont intéressés par un programme un peu différent de ce que nous faisons d'habitude, nous allons organiser des semaines "spéciales thons" à l'été et au début de l'automne 2015. Durant ces semaines, nous irons chercher les thons tous les matins et les après-midi seront consacrées au popper et au jigging. Nous avons déjà teste la formule, donc toutes les infos sur ces semaines spéciales seront postées bientôt avec les photos.

D'autre part, nous avons reçu le tout nouveau matériel de location et nous en sommes extrêmement satisfaits. Toutes les infos et prix concernant nos différentes formules sont téléchargeables depuis la rubrique "gear rental" de notre site internet.
