Would you like to explore the exotic paradise of Panama, catching huge yellowfin tuna, roosterfish, marlin, cubera snapper and many other amazing species? Well now you can, and it’s all been organised to make it simple and easy.

Join BlueWater editor Tim Simpson for a seven-night stay at the luxurious, award-winning Panama Big Game Fishing Club in peak gamefishing season. The first of two back-to-back week-long trips has already sold-out and filled the lodge, but you still have the chance to join our second party. Your week in Panama runs from May 16 to 23. Join our team on your own, with your partner, or come with a party of your fishing buddies. It’s always a friendly scene.

You’ll be staying in air-conditioned comfort and be treated with chef-prepared meals and unlimited cocktails as you relax each evening in the hilltop infinity pool with spectacular views over the surrounding jungle. For six days you’ll fish from dawn ’till dusk aboard a fleet of 10m gameboats armed with the best of tackle – sampling both the offshore seamount and canyon hotspots, and the remote islands where thumping big predators lie in wait around the spectacular island washes.

This is peak yellowfin tuna season in one of the world’s greatest hotspots. On these grounds yellowfin of 100kg are expected and tuna of more than 170kg are always possible. As detailed in the major feature in BlueWater issue 105, last year’s trip also produced roosterfish to 35kg and a long list of other exciting exotic species. This really is a trip of a lifetime, and you’ll also get to see the newly enlarged Panama Canal.

For full details, including a great package price, travel arrangements and optional tours, please contact Ms Kim Bruce at the BlueWater office on (07) 5501 5400, or email KimBruce@bluewatermag.com.au. Positions are limited.
