Local Species Insights: Little Tunny
Little Tunny (false albacore) are one of the most exciting gamefish in Florida's coastal waters. These torpedo-shaped speedsters provide exceptional light-tackle action with blistering runs and determined fights. Found primarily in offshore waters around Riviera Beach, they're typically located by spotting bird activity or surface disturbances where they're feeding on small baitfish.
Captain Rich specializes in targeting these fish using light spinning tackle with fast retrieves that mimic fleeing baitfish. Little Tunny hit lures and baits with explosive strikes and can test both equipment and angler skill with their powerful initial runs. While not considered premium table fare by most anglers, they're prized for their sporting qualities and the challenge they present. The waters off West Palm Beach hold healthy populations of these fish, making them a reliable target for exciting offshore action.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When booking with Tuna Wahoo Charters, plan to arrive at the marina 15-30 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather, including a light jacket for morning runs, sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), and non-marking shoes. The boat accommodates 2-6 anglers comfortably, making it suitable for small groups and families.
Captain Rich provides all necessary fishing gear, but you're welcome to bring your own if preferred. You should bring food, drinks, and any personal items needed for your time on the water. A cooler is available onboard for your catch. Photography is encouraged, so bring a camera to document your Little Tunny catch. For those prone to motion sickness, taking preventative medication before the trip is recommended, especially for offshore fishing.
