Hey there Abbadoo,
Yes, I did read your initial post but as my direct experience is related to Southern California BFT, I figured I hadn't anything to offer. What I should have done was suggest the obvious and refer you to our state by state message boards and any applicable charter services who advertise with B(ig) F(ish) T(ackle). A number of charter services also have sites with reports and message boards where you might get the latest info on those pesky bluefins.
Apolgies to you if you are a savvy internet user and website search pro.
Just for fun I was curious about what was different between the Atlantic and Pacific Bluefin tuna. They have the same scientific name but it seems like the East Coast catches them at their greatest weights on the average. What weight do you consider a school BFT 100 pounds?
I saw some pictures of these 200+ BFT being caught with the New York skyline in the background! Awesome. Let us know of your fishing adventures or mi
ventures. ha haJapanRon
