The best time to hunt for these fish is in May and June when there are excellent weather conditions and calmer waters. The experienced captains have many techniques to maximize your chances of reeling in some Yellowfin Tuna.
Trolling with a spread of baits and lures, including rigged ballyhoo and cedar plugs, attract feeding tuna. Nothing is more exciting than seeing rods bending as a school of Yellowfin strike.
