Wednesday March offshore fishing in Riviera Beach delivered exactly what the "6 Hour Variety Fishing!" trip promised. Captain Rich Adler and his crew at Tuna Wahoo Charters put us right on the bite, starting with trolling in deeper waters using various lures and live bait. The action was steady with King mackerel strikes followed by our beautiful Mahi Mahi. We explored different fishing techniques from deep sea drifting to kite fishing, keeping everyone engaged and the rods bending. The Little tunny provided some exceptional fights, making this Palm Beach charter fishing experience particularly memorable. With all fishing licenses included and room for up to 6 anglers, this trip offers excellent value whether you're a seasoned angler or bringing the family for a day on Florida's productive offshore waters.

Mahi Mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) are one of the most exciting gamefish to target in Riviera Beach waters. These strikingly colorful fish are known for their spectacular aerial displays when hooked, often making multiple jumps and blistering runs that will test your tackle. In the waters off Palm Beach County, Mahi are typically found around floating structure, weed lines, and debris where they hunt smaller baitfish. Captain Rich specializes in locating these productive zones where schools of Mahi might be hunting.
The fishing technique for these speedsters typically involves trolling with rigged ballyhoo, artificial lures, or live bait. When a school is located, casting live baits or buck-tail jigs can produce multiple hookups in quick succession. Mahi are prized not only for their fighting ability but also for their delicious meat, making them one of the most sought-after species for offshore charters in Florida waters.
Tuna Wahoo Charters provides all the essential fishing gear you'll need for a successful day on the water. The vessel comfortably accommodates up to 6 anglers, so you can bring friends or family along for the adventure. Morning departures are typical to maximize fishing time during peak activity periods. Dress in layers and bring sun protection, as Florida weather can change throughout the day. The captain recommends bringing your own food and drinks, as well as a cooler for your catch if you plan to keep fish. Remember that mate tips and live bait charges are additional costs to factor into your trip planning.
