Captain Rich's expert knowledge of local waters and fish behavior was evident throughout the trip. He quickly positioned us in prime fishing locations and provided valuable instruction on the most effective techniques for enticing strikes from these speedy predators.

Local Species Insights: Little Tunny
Little tunny, also known as false albacore, are abundant in the waters surrounding Riviera Beach. These fast-swimming members of the tuna family are typically found in offshore waters but will often move closer to shore when chasing baitfish. They're known for their explosive strikes and powerful runs, making them a thrilling catch on light to medium tackle.
The best time to target little tunny in this area is during their migration periods in spring and fall, though they can be caught year-round with the right approach. Captain Rich specializes in locating these fish by watching for diving birds and surface activity that indicates feeding schools. Once found, fast-moving lures like spoons, jigs, and small plugs that mimic their natural prey are most effective. These fish are primarily pursued for sport rather than table fare, with most anglers practicing catch and release to sustain healthy populations.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When preparing for your fishing charter with Tuna Wahoo Charters, plan to arrive at the dock early—typically 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather, non-marking shoes with good traction, and bringing sun protection including sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. Our vessel accommodates small groups comfortably, providing a personalized fishing experience rather than the crowded conditions found on larger party boats.
While all fishing gear is provided, you're welcome to bring your favorite rod and reel if preferred. Don't forget to pack a camera to document your catches, and consider bringing a small cooler for drinks and snacks during your trip. For your comfort, we also suggest bringing motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness, even if you've never experienced it before. Captain Rich prioritizes both safety and success, ensuring you'll have an enjoyable and productive day on the water.
