Top 10 Fishing Resort
Escorted Big Game Fishing Panama
We are often asked with all our travels what is our favourite resort / destination. As the types of fishing is so varied this is always a difficult question to answer. However if I was ever to put a top ten list, Paradise Lodge would be right in the top. The fishing is just so varied from Huge Marlin to inshore Roosterfish.
5 Fishing Days from £4,124 p/p
