"Hello everyone," said the report from Independence July 23, "we have been fishing the bluefin zone the last two days and have been enjoying excellent fishing on 25 to 38-pound bluefin tuna. Our weather is nice as well, with about 10 to 14 knots of wind and a mild sea state with overcast Sky"s and 70 or so on the air temps. The 30 and 40-pound test line and leader with a hot 'dine has been the ticket to hooking these beauties. We still have a couple of opening on the next trip so give us a call for more info."
