Abstract:

False albacore are speedy fish that are difficult to catch, but anglers have learned to adjust baiting methods, fly rod weight, and casting tactics to become more successful. The Cape Lookout Albacore Festival brings a number of false albacore anglers together each year and has revived the sport of catching this species of fish.
