Blue Runners are fast, schooling fish of tropical and subtropical oceans. Silver-blue with streamlined bodies, they feed on sardines, squid, and crustaceans. Found around reefs, piers, and offshore waters, they are prized as live bait for billfish, tuna, and larger predators, but also provide spirited sport on light tackle.
