The Yellowfin Tuna is impossible to ignore. This Los Suenos fish is noted for its bold coloring and bullet-shaped body, with tiny finlets propelling it through even the wildest waves.
It often proves popular with anglers, with its sporting quality profile tempting them into the Pacific.
Strength
The Yellowfin Tuna is the strongest of the Tuna family. This creature reaches weights of up to 400 pounds and has a muscular frame that can snap small-grade tackle.
Speed
The Yellowfin Tuna is famed for its speed. It often accelerates to 55 miles per hour and can sustain this intensity for long distances. It’s not a sprinter, like the Sailfish or the Blue Marlin. It’s instead a marathon swimmer.
Movements
The Yellowfin Tuna tends to fight with simple, but persistent, movements. Expect tugs and pulls, with the occasional leap above the surface.

Catching a Yellowfin is an always exciting - but often frustrating - process. Use chumming techniques to lure these fish away from their hiding spots and rely on medium-grade tackle. Be patient while reeling them in and never underestimate their strength.
