False Albacore (Practice Catch and Release)
 


Fly Fishing For False Albacore

False Albacore (little tunny) are spectacular gamefish that roam the Atlantic coast. They appear on New England beaches in August and migrate south as water temperatures cool. They reach the Carolinas by November. When schools of baitfish are cruising the shallows, “fat alberts” will herd them to the surface and the bite is on! Minnow imitations are the fly of choice and once you hook one, be ready for your fly line and backing to melt away and keep your knuckles clear of the reel handle. False Albacore have little culinary value and will average 8-12 lbs. Fish up to 20 lbs. are common.

Flies: Clouser Minnows, Lefty's Deceivers, Streamers
