Bluefin tuna continue to top list of targeted species
Monterey Bay anglers enjoyed a great week of fishing with mostly good conditions and plenty of fish on the bite. Nearshore waters have not gotten cold yet, so a variety of species are available to target. Topping the list of course are the majestic bluefin tuna that remain feeding in this area, providing locals and visitors with a chance at lifetime trophy fish. Anglers are catching bluefin in the 10 to 60-pound range. There are still some monsters in the mix weighing over 100 pounds, so be ready. Todd Fraser at Bayside Marine tracks local tuna fishing closely, and reports, “The bluefin are being caught by anglers using Mad Macks and Cedar Plugs. Bluefin were caught near the Point of Monterey around 36'38/122'03, 36'43/122'08, and 36'34/122'12. There are schools of bluefin all over from Santa Cruz to Big Sur.” A number of boats fishing the southern area reported limits of tuna, according to Fraser. The bag limit is two Pacific bluefin tuna per person, per day.
