Good fishing to all –
Let’s face it – Sharks and shark charters are in – in our waters, and fun to catch, even while waiting for a giant bluefin.
Makos, porbeagles, threshers and blue sharks are in our area and biting, making for some fun toothy action. Like seeing this mouthful right next to the boat.
Meanwhile we are also tagging and releasing giant bluefin – 500lbs yesterday, 800lbs last week. We use tags from the Large Pelagic Research Center, our best source of bluefin tuna research. Learn more about their tagging program here.
We are fishing through October at least – contact us to reserve. Good fishing!
This shared charter aboard Tuna Hunter Fishing Charters in June landed the 1st Bluefin tuna in Gloucester for the 2017 season.
Congratulations to Mindy and Doarsha, as they joined up on a shared charter to battle this guy to the boat. This giant Bluefin opens the season – and many more big fish and great angling battles to come. Bluefin are feeding on bunker and mackerel, fattening up for future charters.
To reserve your Bluefin tuna charter call 978-407-1351 or email captain@tunahunter.com or reserve now. Good fishing to you !
