DENNIS BRAID OF MONSTER FISH HUNT

I am very pleased to announce the dates of our first annual Panama Monster Fish Hunt. My first visit to Panama was in 1992 and I have been going back almost every year since. I consider it one of if not my most favorite places to visit and fish. The Punta Burica region offers opportunities to fish for record size Snappers, Roosterfish, Billfish and monster size Tuna. With easy runs to Lardrones or Montuosa and only 10 minutes to the Costa Rican border where there are no other boats. Because there is no boat pressure the popping and jigging can be spectacular for most inshore species.

Aqua adventures Hooked on Panama have been my lodge of choice for the past 3 years. Built on 60+ acres of beautiful rain forest with fresh water streams and manicured landscaping the beach in front only 15 minutes from the 500 fathom drop-off. Accommodations are 12 bungalows providing unsurpassed comfort when not in the beachfront pool, maybe sipping a cold one in the main lodge or battling a fish of a lifetime on one of the twin diesel full walk around game boats.

This trip is hosted by me and my wife to ensure each angler has the trip of a lifetime.

Scheduled dates for the trip are. April 16 23 2012
