Most Aruba fishing trips are done off the southwest coast of Aruba, where the water is calmer.
The yellowfin tuna are one of the many fishes that Natasha Sport Fishing Charters baits for, off the coast of Aruba.
There are concentrated spots of baitfish close to the shoreline of Aruba and other island groups in the Caribbean. When water temperature and clarity is suitable and food is abundant, yellow fin tuna venture closer the shoreline. The yellow fin tuna, like the other fishes baited by us, bite all year around.
The period in which the yellowfin tuna activity in Aruba is at its peak is during “Winter” and the beginning of “Spring” (November through March).
Yellowfin tuna prey include other fish, crustaceans, and squid.
Yellowfins are able to escape most predators, because unlike most fish, tuna are warm-blooded, and their warm muscles make them extremely strong swimmers, with yellowfin tuna reaching “speeds of up to 50 miles per hour”.
