Bass Lures I Took to the Gulf of Chiriquí

We’ve arrived in Panama and we begin fishing tomorrow – possibly with the bass tackle I brought. I’ll cycle it in as conditions permit (perhaps after we have a few grip ‘n grins on our phones) and try to ignore the dismissive looks of the native experts.

I had only limited room in my luggage for extra tackle, so check out the video below to understand my thought process and to see what I toted south:
