Local Species Insights: Atlantic Sailfish
The Atlantic Sailfish is the highlight of many Palm Beach fishing trips, especially during their peak season from November through May. These magnificent billfish are recognized by their prominent dorsal fin (sail) that often stretches the entire length of their body. Riviera Beach waters are particularly productive for targeting sailfish as they follow the bait migrations along the Gulf Stream edge, which runs conveniently close to shore in this region. When hooked, expect spectacular aerial displays as they jump, tailwalk, and make blistering runs. Captain Rich specializes in kite fishing techniques that present live baits at the perfect depth to entice these predators to strike. The average sailfish in these waters ranges from 6-7 feet in length and weighs between 40-60 pounds, though larger specimens are regularly encountered, particularly during the cooler winter months when the bigger fish move through.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When preparing for your trip with Tuna Wahoo Charters, plan to arrive at Riviera Beach City Marina about 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time. The 4-hour adventure includes all necessary fishing tackle, but you may want to bring sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, a hat, and weather-appropriate clothing. Seasickness medication is recommended if you're prone to motion sickness. A small cooler with drinks and snacks is welcome aboard, and you'll want to bring a camera to capture your catch. Remember that weather conditions can change, so it's a good idea to check with Captain Rich the day before your trip for any updates or special recommendations. The boat accommodates up to 5 guests comfortably and has basic amenities including shade coverage and a restroom on board.
