Quiero dar las gracias a todo el equipo de GEM charters por hacer de nuestro día de pesca familiar una experiencia inolvidable. Teniendo niños a bordo la tripulación estuvo siempre atento a las necesidades y preguntas de ellos, les enseñaron a pescar y tuvieron la paciencia necesaria para manejar la emoción de nuestros pequeños pescadores primerizos. Además, nos hicieron un ceviche fresco con un yellowfin tuna que capturamos, que estuvo espectacular. Creería que el ceviche más fresco y delicioso que he probado en mi vida. Igualmente el servicio en tierra fue excelente, Eddie nos esperó pacientemente en la marina, nos asistió en todo y además nos asistió en el proceso del booking por el cual tomamos la decisión de tomar el paseo de día entero a Taboga, el cual fue una excelente **hidden content** hermosa, cercana a la ciudad, con excelente pesca en los alrededores y el destino ideal para ir con niños o personas mayores.
Gracias por todo!

Our day with GEM Charters was simply fantastic! From the moment we booked, the GEM team was incredibly helpful, providing all the necessary information and taking care of the logistics, they arranged pickup in our hotel and made everything super easy.

Once we left the port, the captain acted as a knowledgeable tour guide, sharing interesting facts about Panama City and the Panama Canal. We enjoyed stunning views of Panama Bay and the canal before we got down to the main event: fishing. Our luck was in as we managed to reel in some impressive catches, including mahi-mahi, a personal favorite. They skillfully filleted the fish and prepared the freshest mahi-mahi ceviche we’ve ever tasted – a true delight!

After a few hours of fishing, we cruised over to the beautiful Isla Taboga. We had a great time at its beach, which was amazing, and also enjoyed the kayak for a ride around the different beaches.

We’re immensely grateful to GEM Charters for providing a memorable experience for everyone in our group, from the youngest to the oldest. We wholeheartedly recommend this trip.

The Gem Charters team truly worked wonders to accommodate my tight schedule, as I was passing by the city for a short while. They guided me towards the benefits of choosing a late afternoon charter, a departure from my usual early morning trips. The entire experience, from the prompt pickup to the fishing adventure, was flawlessly timed. While I’ve had the pleasure of fishing with various captains over the years, Miguel stood out as truly exceptional. We grooved to some fantastic latin music and landed several catches. It was a day on the water that I’ll remember for a long time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better fishing experience.

I had a really good time fishing with a crew that could speak both Spanish and English. They were ready with everything we needed, and the fishing gear and boat were in great shape. We followed their advice to start early, and on our way to the islands, we caught some mahi-mahi and bonito fish. We even got to see some big whales, which was super cool.

The captain taught us how to fish and told us about the types of fish around. We caught four big fish and one not-so-big fish. They told us about a restaurant nearby where they could cook our fish, and it turned out to be really tasty.

After eating, we went for a swim at a beach (absolutely beatiful) and enjoyed the sea breeze on the way back. We also then threw some lines for a while and caught big jacks and a mackerel. It was a really awesome day and we’ll remember it for a long time. Cheers to that!

Our recent shared fishing charter experience was a real treat, rain and all. Our captain’s expertise was evident as they deftly navigated the weather, making sure we stayed comfortable and dry. They took us to a prime fishing area where we landed jacks, yellowfin tuna, and mahi-mahi.

The captain’s local knowledge and skills were apparent, ensuring a successful fishing trip. All in all, rain couldn’t dampen our spirits or the fun we had on this fishing adventure. It’s an experience I’d gladly repeat, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a genuine fishing charter, no exaggeration needed.
