Some period from August to November offer great Big game fishing for Dolphin fish which come in huge numbers in the Adriatic !

Found worldwide in tropical and warm temperate seas, the dolphin is pelagic, schooling, and migratory. Though occasionally caught from an ocean pier, it is basically a deep water species, inhabiting the surface of the open ocean. Also found in the Mediterranean and Adriatic sea Croatia!!!
The dolphin is an extremely distinctive fish, both for its shape and its colors. Though it is among the most colorful fish in the sea, the colors are quite variable and defy an accurate, simple description. Generally, when the fish is alive in the water, the dolphin is rich iridescent blue or blue-peen dorsally; gold, bluish gold, or silvery gold on the lower flanks; and silvery white or yellow on the belly.
The deepest part of the albacore's body is near the second dorsal fin, rather than near the middle of the first dorsal fin as in other tunas, and the vent is round rather than oval or teardrop shape The fins are dark yellowish, except for the white trailing edge of the tail.

The sides are sprinkled with a mixture of dark and light spots, ranging from black or blue to golden. The dorsal fin is rich blue, and the anal fin is golden or silvery. The other fins are generally golden yellow, edged with blue. When the dolphin is removed from the water, the colors fluctuate between blue, green, and yellow.

After death the fish usually turns uniformly yellow or silvery gray. Large males have high, vertical foreheads, while the female's forehead is rounded. Males grow larger than females. There are no spines in any of the fins.

Dolphins are extremely fast swimmers and feed extensively on flying fish and squid as well as on other small fish. It is believed that they can reach speeds up to 50 mph (80.5 kph) in short busts.

Successful fishing methods include trolling surface baits (flying fish, mullet, balao, squid, strip baits) or artificial lures; also live bait fishing or casting. If the first dolphin caught is kept in the water, it will usually hold the school, and often others will come near enough to be caught by casting.
