Bluefin Tuna Fishing Going Strong

Giant bluefin tuna fishing on Tuna Hunter continues through the fall, for as long as weather allows and the bluefin are in our Cape Ann waters.

Yet another recent trip yielded three tagged giant bluefin. A few days before, our charter went home with a porbeagle shark and tagged a giant bluefin in the same afternoon.
