A TRIP TO PANAMA CITY - FISHING BAYANO RIVER

During our trip to Panama City, Greg enjoyed a great day of fishing on Rio Bayano.  The scenery was spectacular, and even though his guide was a little disappointed by the fishing, Greg was very pleased with the day.  As most of you know, Greg is an avid fisherman and has had opportunities to catch practically every type of fish imaginable.  He was more than happy to catch a few large tarpon on this trip, a fish he had never caught before. One of the highlights of the trip was spotting a crocodile in the swampy marshes of the river - very exciting!

Look closely, and you'll see a crocodile close to the riverbank.   Greg estimated that it was over 10 feet long,
and he was glad that he was fishing out of a boat and not sitting in a kayak!
