Skipjack Tuna is a species of tuna found in warm, tropical waters around the world. It is known for its distinctive stripes and is a popular target for commercial and recreational fisheries.
Skipjack Tuna have a streamlined body with dark horizontal stripes running along their lower sides. They are generally dark blue to purple on the back and silver on the belly. They can grow up to 3 feet in length and weigh around 40 pounds.
Skipjack Tuna are typically found in warm, open ocean waters. Around Oahu, they can be found in offshore waters and often form large schools.
Common methods include trolling with lures, using live or cut bait, and casting near schools of fish. They are often caught using light to medium tackle.
Light to medium spinning or trolling gear is recommended. Use monofilament or braided lines with a breaking strength of 10-30 lb test, depending on the size of the fish.
Skipjack Tuna can be caught year-round around Oahu, but they are most abundant from May to October.
Skipjack Tuna are currently considered a species of least concern due to their high reproductive rate and wide distribution. However, sustainable fishing practices are still important to prevent overfishing.
Management measures include catch limits, monitoring of fish stocks, and the use of sustainable fishing methods to ensure their populations remain healthy.
Anglers can contribute by following local regulations, practicing catch and release, and supporting fisheries that use sustainable practices.
