Local Species Insights: Little Tunny
Little tunny (also called false albacore) are one of the most exciting gamefish to target in the waters off Riviera Beach. These speedsters are known for their blistering initial runs and dogged fights, often making them pound-for-pound one of the hardest fighting fish in these waters. They typically school up around reefs, wrecks, and current edges where bait concentrates, making them perfect targets for trolling and casting techniques.
During March, Little tunny begin showing up in greater numbers as they follow warming water temperatures and baitfish movements. When targeting them, look for diving birds, surface splashes, or bait schools being pushed to the surface. Fast-moving lures like small spoons, jigs, and casting plugs can be effective, but live bait like pilchards or sardines can sometimes be the ticket when they get finicky.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
When booking with Tuna Wahoo Charters, plan to arrive at the dock about 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time. The boat comfortably accommodates small groups, making it perfect for family outings or fishing with friends. Wear weather-appropriate clothing, bring sun protection, and consider motion sickness remedies if you're prone to seasickness. While all fishing gear is provided, you may want to bring a camera to document your catches, along with food and drinks for the day unless meals are specifically included in your package.
