The Outdoor Gear We Recommend
We may have a little bit of a hoarding problem. Good gear need not be expensive, but it has to improve the experience in some way. Whether it’s the right rod, a certain bait, or the world’s best rainsuit, we’ll give unfiltered opinions on what we use and why we use it.
Bass Tackle for Panama Tuna Trip #5
My 2024 fishing travel highlight took place in Panama when we got into multiple schools of tuna and I caught them on bass tackle. We’re headed back in January, and while that’s not ultra-prime tuna popping time, I’m hoping that I can use some of that same gear for not just tuna, but also inshore species.
Bass Tackle for Yellowfin Tuna
While the gear at SFPIL stom tailored to the species that are in the Gulf of Chiriqui, I’ve always wondered what it would be like to bring “bass tackle” down there. Could it stand up to the test of these fish, all of which pull harder than any bass you’ve ever caught?
