If you wonder how is the fishing on the Tuna Coast of Panama during the green season, make sure to follow the reports to come and those from previous years. This particular season is a little unusual weather-wise, as with every years with an El Nino influence. We are experiencing unusual wind form the North out of Pedasi, and while this does not bother with the inshore fishing, it limits the options to go offshore. Likewise, the water maybe did not warm up as much as other years, and so the jigging offshore has been less reliable than other years. On a positive note, weather has been better than usual this year. Weather isn't a great concern when fishing the Tuna Coast at this time fo the year. Unlike the Chiriqui area, there are no mountains here to hold the clouds so we merely get half the rainfall that other parts of Panama gets. Check out the pictures of the groups we had this first week of July. All fish caught on artificial lures as always at the Panafishing lodge, the only 100% popping & jigging fishing lodge in Central America ! Notice the great variety !

Not much to be said about mid-june this year. Fishing was good and varied without being excellent. Still plenty of small tunas on the inshore spot, and pretty calm weather and good jigging as you would expect from that time of the year. It was great to have Stu Walker fishing and filming at the Panafishing lodge. Check out the awesome trailer from his upcoming video about the Tuna Coast of Panama.

Ok, we are running late on the reports... Early June, we had the pleasure to welcome Yves and 2 more fellow Frenchmen on their first fishing trip on the Tuna Coast of Panama. Fishing was really good on jig, with a lot of variety and action. Popper fishing was not quite as good, and we lacked success on the roosterfish and cubera snappers. As usual in June, there was crazy yellowfin tuna action on topwater on the nearshore spots. Here are the pictures, starting with a beautiful and unusual Leather grouper caught on jig:
