Panama Trip Report - Darien

Hello mates, I'm back from the 2013 trip in the South Pacific side of Panama, with some firends from Spain and 2 Panamanian fisherman, has gone quite well but there has been quite challenging and as always the photos seem to have been easy and has not been in almost any occasion, is one of the years that the more grateful I have trained hard.

I put here a first Trailer some pictures of the environment and fishing.


Coming soon at www.videocean.com/english/index.html

I uploaded more photos on my Facebook (much easier) ... but only my Facebook - friends can see, if anyone wants further information go to:

search my name: Carlos Javier Martinez Garcia and in the case of non-Facebook friend ask it.
























Regards.

Carlos.

Water has been so cold this year in the Gulf of Panama! Hopefully this is the end of the wind season (chart from Buoyweather.com)

The first part of the trip was better, I think for the cold water, this current bring many Bojalas (amberjacks).
