Get to San Diego and for less than $200 you can go for tuna. Mostly
Albacore, but decent chance at smaller Bluefin and Yellowfin tuna.


Tuna are migratory and can be elusive. Four years ago when I had a
fishing boat it was a really big deal if anybody came in with a yellowfin
tuna in Cape Cod Bay. They usually started showing up around the middle
of August.

This year tuna were plentiful in the Bay in June and have remained all
summer. The charter guys and most recreational guys with the right gear
have very rarely been skunked on any outing.

Apparently, there's bluefin as well on the south side of the Cape out
beyond the Vineyard.

We always have a run off the West Coast. Just some years the window is very
small where they are close enough for the private boats to run for them.
Off Oregon, they come in closer due to the current flows.
