Hey fellas,

Charlie has returned to the waters just north of CT. Massachusetts Bay has seen a good influx of fish over the past couple weeks. I'd imagine there's quite a few down by you guys as well.

The Bluefins are Back

Tuna fishing in our region is kicking back into gear as school and giant bluefins return to the waters around Stellwagen Bank. Right now is a phenomenal time to be a tuna fishermen.

Very nice fish. Had hoped to get in a trip up to MA for some bluefin, but now I'm less than 2 weeks from the Outer Banks. Went in the fall in '09 and had a nice 69" fish and released a 71". We also kept one in the mid-40s filling our slot limits that season. First time fishing bluefin and we hooked three off of P-Town from out of Boston. Really want to set up a spring trip next year.

Sounds great redneck. Awesome screen name by the way!

Fishing yesterday on the Bank was slow but it will improve. Tight lines this year!

How's the bite been here? Caught a bluefin down in Hatteras last week. About 12"!!! Hit a trolling rig as big as he was. Let him go with the hope we'll see him up here in a few years.
