Local Species Insights: Blue Marlin
The blue marlin is the ultimate offshore trophy for many anglers visiting Riviera Beach. These magnificent billfish are found in the warm Gulf Stream waters that flow close to Palm Beach County's coastline, particularly during spring months like March. Blue marlin are among the fastest and most powerful gamefish in the ocean, capable of making spectacular aerial displays and blistering runs that will test both angler and equipment.
Captain Rich employs specialized heavy tackle techniques when targeting blue marlin, including trolling with ballyhoo, mullet, or artificial lures at varying depths and speeds. When conditions are right, kite fishing can also be effective, presenting live baits at the surface where hungry marlin can spot them from below. The fight with a blue marlin can be physically demanding but incredibly rewarding, often lasting over an hour for larger specimens, creating memories that last a lifetime.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
For your day on the water with Tuna Wahoo Charters, wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather, including a light jacket in cooler months and sun protection year-round (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen). The boat is well-equipped with quality fishing gear, safety equipment, and fish-finding technology to maximize your chances of success. While the charter includes all necessary fishing equipment and licenses, remember to bring cash for live bait costs and mate gratuity.
Most trips begin early morning when fishing conditions are optimal, though exact departure times can be confirmed when booking. The 4-hour duration strikes a perfect balance—long enough to reach productive offshore grounds and have quality fishing time, but short enough to keep everyone comfortable, especially younger anglers or those prone to seasickness. Captain Rich prioritizes both safety and enjoyment, ensuring a positive experience for everyone aboard.
