Panama’s waters are home to some of the most sought-after game fish in the world. Whether you’re chasing inshore fighters or offshore giants, these species make every trip unforgettable.
The most iconic inshore catch in Panama. Recognized by its tall dorsal fin and aggressive strikes, roosterfish thrive along rocky coastlines and island reefs. Ideal for catch-and-release anglers seeking action nearshore.
Vibrant colors, high jumps, and non-stop energy make mahi-mahi a favorite for offshore charters. Found year-round in warm Pacific waters, especially during the dry season, they’re a must for sportfishing photos and fresh sashimi onboard.
Powerful, fast, and abundant — yellowfin tuna define Panama’s deep-sea fishing. They gather around Hannibal Bank and Coiba, where multi-day packages deliver unforgettable big-game battles.
Whether you prefer calm inshore waters, deep-sea battles, or freshwater adventure, PescaYa connects you with the best Panama fishing packages for every style and budget.
