Fishing for Pelagic Fish
What are Pelagic Fish?
Pelagic fish get their name from the area that they inhabit called the pelagic zone. The pelagic zone is the largest habitat on earth with a volume of 330 million cubic miles. Different species of pelagic fish are found throughout this zone. Numbers and distributions vary regionally and vertically, depending on availability of light, nutrients, dissolved oxygen, temperature, salinity, and pressure.
In the Palm Coast, Florida area, some anglers do head 50 to 70 miles offshore to fish the Gulf Stream waters that are home to marlin, wahoo, tuna, sailfish, mahi mahi and king mackerel.
