Panama Fishing Report - Wet Season Yellowfin Tunas and More! - August 2013by
Shane Jarvis
(9/13/2013)
The wet season is here in full swing in the Gulf of Chiriqui as front after front moved through making the seas a bit rough for a couple of days in August. Although the weather is more of a factor this time of year....the fishing is as good as ever. We only fished a handful of days but the ones that we did we were able to locate the fish, see some cool sights, and get into some good action!
