Local Species Insights: Mahi Mahi
Mahi Mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) is one of the most exciting gamefish you can target in Riviera Beach waters. These colorful, hard-fighting pelagics are known for their acrobatic jumps and blistering runs when hooked. In the waters off Florida's east coast, Mahi can be found around floating debris, weed lines, and temperature breaks where they hunt smaller baitfish.
When targeting Mahi off Riviera Beach, Captain Rich employs multiple proven techniques. Trolling with ballyhoo, small lures, or squid skirts works well when covering ground, while sight-casting with live bait can be extremely effective when schools are spotted. These fish are known for their aggressive feeding behavior - once one fish is hooked, others in the school often stay nearby, creating opportunities for multiple hookups. The vibrant blue-green and yellow coloration of a freshly caught Mahi is truly a sight to behold, making them not only exciting to catch but also a beautiful photo opportunity.
Plan Your Fishing Charter Day
For your 6-hour variety fishing trip, plan to arrive at the marina about 30 minutes before departure to meet Captain Rich and get situated. The vessel is well-equipped with all the necessary fishing gear, safety equipment, and comfortable seating for up to 5 anglers. It's recommended to bring sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, a hat, non-marking shoes, and any preferred snacks or drinks.
Weather conditions in Riviera Beach can change quickly, so layering clothing is advisable even on warm days. The captain monitors conditions closely and prioritizes safety above all else. The offshore waters can sometimes be choppy, so consider taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to seasickness. With Tuna Wahoo Charters, you're in experienced hands with a captain who knows these waters intimately and is committed to providing a safe, enjoyable, and productive day on the water.
