Fishing Itinerary

 

All M/V Coral Star Fishing Charters start and end in the charming city of David, Panama, located on the Pacific Coast of Panama. Our 6 Day Fishing Charters begin on Saturday and end on Thursday.

 


Saturday:
Meet us at the Coral Star Landing/TAS Marina bright and early or we would be happy to pick you up at the David Regional Airport when you arrive. Once at the Coral Star Landing, our Captains and Mates will load your luggage, then have you board our sport fisher for the picturesque ride down the Chiriquí River. Depending upon tides, this relaxing and beautiful winding river takes roughly 1 hour to navigate. At the mouth of the river is the Paridas Island Chain, there you will meet the mother ship, the M/V Coral Star. Once your luggage is transferred and the Captain has explained the safety procedures onboard and you have settled into your cabin, you will be ready to start your fishing adventure. Lunch is waiting for you aboard your sport boat . This first day you can expect to fish 5-6 hours, depending upon your travel arrangements. This is the perfect opportunity for inshore, deep canyon or river fishing.

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday:
Morning continental breakfast and coffee will be available starting at 5:30 a.m. with a full breakfast from 6:00 to 6:30 a.m. Our boats are loaded by 6:30 a.m. each day. Sunday, while you are out fishing, the Captain will move the mother ship out to one of the outlying islands being Coiba, Ladrones, or Montousa Island, depending upon what target species is the focus of the week. Meanwhile, you are off fishing inshore around any number of islands or offshore around the Hannibal Bank, Shipping Lanes or numerous other sites, the choice is yours. All four days, fish up to 12+ hours per day, the sport boat, Captain and Mate are basically at your command - fish how you want, where you want, for the species you want or take a break and do some snorkeling. Be sure to discuss with your Captain your preferences for each day so proper equipment is onboard. For safety precautions, it is mandatory for the sport boats to return to the M/V Coral Star by sunset, and that all boats stay within radio contact of each other at all times.

The mother ship, or floating lodge, may stay in one location or move, depending upon fishing, seas and species targeted. Typically, the ship is moored a couple of days at Montousa and a couple of days at Coiba, however this is subject to change based on the Captain’s discretion and fishing conditions. Either way, she will move during the day, while you are out fishing. Late afternoon when you return, you’ll find her tucked back into a cove, appetizers waiting, dinner on it’s way and a nice cold drink served by our smiling, courteous staff. Every evening, dinners offer a couple of selections for the main course. Fresh fish, of course, is always a specialty onboard the Coral Star. If you would like to have your catch prepared, please alert our Chef so arrangements can be made. Evenings onboard are relaxing with casual conversations or a playful game…and of course, plenty of fish stories and laughter!

Thursday:
The last day of your trip, you can expect to fish 6-8 hours offshore or inshore. We will need to get you back to the Coral Star Landing at 3:30 to ensure that you make your flight from David back to Panama City.

Note: This itinerary is subject to change, however, every effort will be made to adhere to this outline as close as possible.

Starlite Travel offers a companion package that includes all arrangements after your arrival into Panama City, including VIP into Panama, two nights accommodation, in-country flight and transfers.

Panama’s popularity is growing, and along with their many holidays, hotel occupancy and in-country flights are booking out well in advance.
