Fishing Report December 19, 2018
Greetings from Hooked on Panama Lodge!
We
started of the season the first week of December with Russell and
sons Leo and Nick here from Australia. They fished for three days
and caught over 20 dorado, snuck in a nice sailfish, added around 8
roosters with some snapper and bluefin trevally into the mix.
They were headed for Cuba from here, Hope you guys have a great
trip!
Tom Valenti and his friends Frank, John and Steve showed up
mid-week. Tom and Frank were just here in June and wanted to
come back at the start of the season. They reached the lodge
at noon and went straight to the boat for a afternoon of
fishing.
They released a marlin and brought back 4 dorado and some snappers
for dinner. Not bad for a half day fishing! For the
next 3 days the dorado were thick, and they had a quadruple hook up
twice. Would have liked to see a video of that, but everyone
was too busy. Tom landed 4 dorado on his fly rod (good going
Tom!) They had a variety of snapper and roosters with one
rooster over 50 lbs. We will be seeing them again next December.
Looking forward to having them back!
Right behind Tom’s group we had Bill and Susan Rose with Chuck and
Karen Milling from Fort Worth for 3 days of fishing. Bill was
here for his first marlin and took care of that on the first day
raising 2 marlin and releasing one. They also released a
sailfish. The rest of the trip was a variety of snapper,
bluefin trevally, spanish mackerel, and of course dorado.
The Dorado made for a great sashimi! Fresh dorado and snapper
for dinners was off the charts!
We have 2 more groups fishing right now, so stay tune for more fish
stories.
Tight Lines,
