Local Species Insights: Little Tunny
Little Tunny, also known as false albacore, are prized by anglers for their blistering runs and pound-for-pound fighting strength. These torpedo-shaped fish typically range from 18-30 inches and are found in the warm offshore waters around Palm Beach County. They travel in schools, following baitfish migrations, which makes them an exciting target when they're running.
For the best chance at hooking these speedsters, Captain Rich recommends fast-moving lures like small spoons or jigs that mimic their natural prey. Light to medium tackle provides the most sporting experience, as these fish will make several long, powerful runs before coming to the boat.
