Riviera Beach offers excellent fishing conditions throughout much of the year, with each season bringing different target species and fishing opportunities. The proximity to the Palm Beach Inlet provides quick access to both inshore and offshore waters, making this location particularly versatile for fishing charters. Water temperatures range from the low 70s in winter to mid-80s in summer, influencing fish behavior and location.
Weather conditions in South Florida can change quickly, particularly during summer months when afternoon thunderstorms are common. Captain Rich monitors forecasts closely and will advise on the best days and times to fish. The Gulf Stream's proximity creates distinct current edges that often hold concentrations of bait and predatory fish—a pattern Captain Rich has learned to identify and exploit over years of fishing these waters. For the most comfortable experience, especially for those prone to seasickness, consider booking morning trips when winds are typically lighter.
Prepare for your day with Tuna Wahoo Charters by bringing sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), weather-appropriate clothing, and non-marking shoes. Captain Rich recommends bringing a small cooler for personal drinks and snacks, though water is provided on board. The charter boat comfortably accommodates up to six anglers, making this an ideal activity for small groups or families.
Most trips depart from marinas in the Riviera Beach area, with specific meeting instructions provided upon booking. Plan to arrive about 15-20 minutes before your scheduled departure time to load gear and complete any necessary paperwork. Fishing licenses are covered for everyone on board, and all catches will be cleaned and filleted at the end of the trip unless you prefer catch-and-release. For the best experience, communicate your fishing preferences and experience level with Captain Rich in advance so he can tailor the trip to your expectations.
