Yellow-Fin Tuna Fishing in the Philippines

Yellowfin Tuna are a highly prized gamefish. Tuna feed almost exclusively on smaller fish and squid. They like thier meal to be bite sized and doesn’t fancy chewing it up.

In the Philippines, tunas abound in the Visayas Region, most particulary General Santos or GenSan as more commonly known. Lesser known to others are the fact that there is another tuna capital up north of Metro Manila. The coastal waters of Zambales hold Yellowfin Tunas as well. They can be caught all year round several kilomters off shore, roughly 3 hours by bangka. But during the months of October to December, they move closer to shore and can be seen a few kilometers away, mere minutes from shore.
