There was only one fish weighed in during November and that was a 16.8 lb bass by Gary Aprea on
November 29.

The bottom fishing is still holding on pretty good for everything, with the cod fishing getting better every
day. However, the number of boats fishing has dropped off considerably. All the head boats fish when they have
the weather and customers. Most of the charterboats are out of the water except for the couple that usually fish
through the winter.

The boat that I run all summer is no longer for sale. The owner changed his mind so I still have a job.

If you are looking for a warm place to fish this winter, check out www.tropicalfishing.com. If you have
always wanted to fish at Tropic Star in Panama, I have something new for you to consider. A liveaboard boat
out of Panama City. You fly to Panama and go to the boat which will run overnight to Pinas Bay, fish there
however number of days you want and run back to Panama overnight for your flight back to the states. Check it
out at www.tropicalfishing.com/panama/pinas.html
