Tropic Star Lodge Fishing Seasons
Panama Sport Fishing Seasons
November: We open the last week of November with our TSL Tournaments. The Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Yellowfin, and 40-60 pound Dorado are typically there waiting for us. The inshore fishing for Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper is excellent as well. It also marks the end of the rainy season. Debris-lines can form offshore that hold lots of bait and fish. The seas are very calm; you can experience a shower, mainly onshore…
December: Great all around month for most species. The Big Yellowfin Tuna, Big Dorado and Pacific Sailfish over 100 pounds show up, along with Black Marlin and Blue Marlin. The inshore fishing for Big Roosterfish and Cubera is in full swing. A great month for a variety of fish.
January: Considered one of the most popular months for Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna (100-200-pounds), Big Sailfish (over 100-pounds) and Big Dorado (50-60 pound range). It can get bumpy near the end of the month, as the north wind brings cooler water and tailing Marlin.
February: Very similar to January. Offshore the Blue Marlin and Striped Marlin like the cooler water, and the Black Marlin is on the Zane Grey Reef. One of the best months for Grand Slams.
March: One of the top months for Big Yellowfin Tuna. Black Marlin, Blue Marlin and an occasional Striped Marlin are on the menu too. Can be one of the best months for inshore fishing for Big Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper.
April: Can be a great transition month. The wind starts coming out of the south, bringing bait-balls of Sardines down the coast, which signals the arrival of hungry Sailfish etc. Black Marlin, Blue Marlin and Yellowfin Tuna can be caught as well. A great month for inshore fishing for Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper. The seas are typically flat calm.
May: The Sailfish are moving in close to shore following the bait. This is a time where we focus on catching Sailfish, many within 2 miles from shore. They can be caught offshore as well. Marlin can be caught, but we tend to spend more time racking up numbers of Sailfish. Inshore fishing can be very productive. We start to get some showers, mostly onshore. Very calm seas.
June: Very similar to May, the Sailfish season is in full swing. Not uncommon to get 20 bites per day. Inshore can be a bonanza. Very Calm seas.
July: One of our best months for a variety of fish. Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, along with Sailfish and Dorado round out the species… Grand Slams are not uncommon. Inshore fishing can be very productive. One of our cooler months, due to overcast an occasional showers, mostly onshore. Calm seas…
August: A variety month for billfish, Big Yellowfin Tuna can be caught as well. Wahoo start showing up in numbers. Inshore fishing for Roosterfish and Cubera Snapper can be very good. Occasional showers, mostly onshore and calm seas.
September: The Black & Blue Marlin fishing can be very good… Wahoo fishing should be at its best, inshore fishing can be very productive. The weather is very similar to August. We close for maintenance from the third week of September till the third week of November.
