It will be 90 in Costa Del Este Panama today and tomorrow and the next day, as a matter of fact the difference between winter & summer is if it's raining or not and it's 3 degrees cooler in winter now were entering summer.

joel, a friend of mine is headed down to panama next week.  i just finished servicing his big old single speed penn international 50 TW.  he has it loaded with 700 yards of 50# mono.  it freespools for hours, no big feat considering the overall mass of the spool.  it is set up for 15 pounds at strike, 20 pounds just past the stopper button, 25 pounds midway between the stopper button and full, and 28 pounds at full.  he says he is going to catch a sailfish.  apparently he had instructions to set up his reel in this manner.  his name is tom and he will be staying at the tropic star.  you will recognize his reel immediately because it has a huge 6/0 kolekar grip on it.  alan

Good luck to those who've decided to stay and see it through.

That's not funny. ;D  We've been in the high 20's and 30's with rain and sleet for the last two days. I'm ready for spring :o :o

Fishead:  What time do you want to leave for Swordfishing?  I'll catch a flight tonight.  I'll buy gas. Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

They bite throughout the day,just have to get the bait to one.0 for 2,pulled hooks on both.its is about a 45 minute run to the area we fish.1500-1800ft in depth,15 lbs weight,bait is fished on or just off the bottom.I think we broke 80 today,or at least it felt like it.The experts tell us we should remain in this weather pattern for the next week or so.I'm not trying to rub it in,just telling it like it is.The best thing about living here is that no matter what the weather or time of year is,something is biting somewhere.

Fishead:  Yeah Nuthin, Alan's right.  The big nuthin.  I only fished Florida once.  Fished out of Tampa.  I did not plan it as a fishing trip so the only fish running were King fish.  We caught about 15 or so 3 to 5lbs.  I have had grat success in Puerto Rico (Tarpon) and my first White Marlin out of the Dominican Republic.  Dominick

Fishead: Your offer is tempting. I came down to Islamorada in the Florida Keys a little while ago. It didn't take me long to realize why they call it the "Fishing Capital of the World". I chartered a boat on my own (I couldn't get anyone to join me). We went out for 6 hours, the Captain and Mate fished alongside of me. I couldn't believe how much action in one day! Bulls, Sharks, Triple Tails, Red Snapper and more. I'm self employed and really needed to get back to work, but I needed a vacation to get over my vacation (not to mention rest my sore shoulder)....it was worth it though! I didn't take many pictures but here is a shot of that bull! Sal

Sal:  Great pic of you and the Dodo.  The Barbara Ann frozen-in gave me the chills.  I'll never forget the face freeze when I lived back east.
Fishead be careful of tempting us, you might find us on your doorstep some morning waiting to fish ;D.  Dominick

Dominick, let's make him an offer he can't refuse, homemade prosciutto and cheese and some homemade wine to wash it down!

:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D
