about peacock bass fishing
With five years of fishing experience on Gatun Lake and several years as a guide, I bring a deep understanding of this unique ecosystem and the thrill of fishing its waters. I guide guests aboard an 18-foot pontoon, offering them the chance to catch a range of exciting species, including snook, peacock bass, tarpon, and jack crevalle. Completely fluent in both English and Spanish, I aim to create a memorable and successful fishing experience for guests from around the world, sharing the skills and local knowledge that make Gatun Lake one of Panama’s top fishing destinations.
