We had 4 groups fishing and got 3 black Marlin and 1 blue Marlin. Inshore fishing was very good with good numbers of Cubera snapper, Mullet snapper, rooster fish, sierra mackerel, jacks - with allot of the action on surface poppers. Wahoo was good - not like it should be this time of year - but a couple of them almost every day and we had large numbers of Dorado (dolphin) with most fish over 20lb. Spotty on Yellow fin tuna but caught 1 over 200lb - for this time of year having one that size is not common - but last two weeks have not had any yellowfin around. Capt. Lee
Hi Lee
I am having some trouble with the photos. As you know my camera was bad. Hope these few will work for you. I can’t thank you enough for all that you and your crew does for us clients. Chong and I have been on many Safaris and have never had any better or come close to your package. I learned so much is such a short while and had fun fishing. I was so impressed with your people and the way you keep the place so clean, and the food was above and beyond. I hope to see you again next year. Aloha, Jack Parker
Cap lee, quiero hacerle saber mi agradecimiento por el trato recibido durante mi estadía en Panamá Big game con el grupo de clientes que he llevado.
la atención que han tenido para con nosotros ha sido excelente y ha superado ampliamente nuestras expectativas.
Todos los servicios que nos han dado fueron de un excelente profesionalismo y siempre con una calidad de atención para destacar.
La comida, siempre fue variada y digna de un chef internasional.
Quiero destacar el buen trato de todo el staff de Panamá Big Game Fishing, tanto de Rolando, Edilberto, El Cap tati, el marinero Narciso y por supuesto de Ud Señor Lee.
Tengo muchas expectativas para que en el 2009 podamos llevar a muchos mas pescadores a disfrutar de ese paraíso que Uds tienen allí.
Lamento mucho no tener un buen ingles, y no haber podido tener mejores diálogos con UD.
Le mando un fuerte abrazo a todos y espero volver a verlos pronto el año próximo.
PD: Rolando, creo haber olvidado un aparato pequeño que es para leer las memorias de las cámaras de fotos, si es así te pido que me lo hagas saber, para ver si de alguna manera lo puedo recuperar.
PD 2: Les envío algunas fotos para poner en su Web Site.

Panama Fishing Report August September 2008
Fishing started off the first of August on the slow side - some tuna action offshore but picked up after that - both inshore and offshore. A little slow on wahoo - not the double digit per day numbers we are used to for this time of year and spotty with rooster but some real quality fish caught. Very good snapper - cubera, mullet, yellow, dorado, and with 3 - 200lbs. plus yellowfin tuna. Caught, blue jacks, 2 Black Marlin, 1 Blue Marlin (with 80% of the fishing inshore), sailfish, seirra mackerel, amberjack rounding things out. We release all billfish, Cubera snapper, Rooster fish and have just started releasing all female dorado. Capt. Lee
Hi Lee:
Thanks again for another great trip to Panama Big Game. My son, nephew, and I had a ball. We knew it was the off season, but the inshore fishing was fantastic. The 2 days we fished at the Secas, we caught 3 roosters to 50lb., and 22 dorado, but the smallest was 30lb, especially the 55lb bull my son caught on a topwater popper, plus a number of other types of jacks casting to the rocks. Out on Montosa we caught a nice wahoo, and 1 nice tuna, but it was in the afternoon when we would start dropping down baits that all hell would break loose. We caught a 50lb. cubera, the largest blue trevally I have ever seen. We then located a large school of mullet snapper, and started catching one after another. After a boat load of different types of snappers, and completely out of bait and totally exhausted, it was time to head back to the lodge. Panama Big Game Club never ceases to amaze me for its tremendous amout of variety and diversity of fishing. It was my fifth trip there and I guarantee not my last. Tell all the guys at the lodge Hello, and thanks for making it a trip my son and nephew will never forget. Yours truly, Mike Love
Capt. Lee,
We had a great time. The food and hospitality was fantastic! Antonio, Juan and Narcisso worked really hard and produced lots of action for us. During the five days of fishing, we caught a total of 38 fish - three of which were the largest we've ever caught - the Dorado, Rooster and Black Marlin were all our personal records. Thanks for a great time. Thanks again, Peggy and Kirk
Lee,
We had a great time in Panama and were very impressed by your operation. The food was great, fishing was outstanding and everything went as smoothly as we could have hoped for. Hope things are going well, Ben Rosenthal
