Little Tunny, also known as false albacore, are fast-swimming members of the tuna family commonly found in the waters off West Palm Beach. These torpedo-shaped fish are known for their incredible speed and fighting ability, often making blistering runs that will test your drag system and angling skills. They typically school up and can be found feeding on the surface, creating exciting visual fishing opportunities. Captain Rich targets these fish using both trolling techniques and by sight-casting when they're feeding on the surface.
These fish are most active during the warmer months but can be caught year-round in Florida's coastal waters. While not considered premier table fare like their yellowfin and blackfin cousins, Little Tunny provide some of the best pound-for-pound fighting action available in South Florida waters. Their preference for fast-moving lures and baits makes them particularly exciting for sports anglers looking for a challenge.
