BLUEFIN TUNA

facebook9

Bluefin tuna arrive in Cape Cod waters in June. These fast-moving pelagics are the top predators in our area, sought after by anglers from all over the world. School fish from 25 to 300 lbs can be caught on light spinning tackle, jig & pop style, or fly rods capable of holding 400 yards of backing. Hunting, casting to and catching them is an adrenaline rush — taking them on a topwater lure or on a jig is the thrill of a lifetime, and landing one on the fly is the ultimate challenge. Bluefin stay in great numbers into the fall. June, September and October are prime months for this fishery.
