Bluefin Tuna Fishing Charters Gloucester, MA

The Tuna Hunter crew pull in a 920 pound bluefin tuna.

Tuna fishing is a specialty of Captain Gary, who has been giant fishing in MA since 1984.

Giant bluefin tuna fishing is like big game hunting - careful selection of the fishing sport, research of the tuna paths and migration routes, feeding patterns and habits, selection of the right bait and presentation for the day's light, weather and sea conditions, all are part of the hunt for a hungry, mighty giant bluefin.

A giant strike is like hooking into a Volkswagon on the highway - these Tuna fish do not nibble! Anglers fight giant bluefin tuna for as long a one's arm will turn. Able anglers take turns to keep green muscle on the fish, while Captain Gary handles TUNA HUNTER for optimal action and efficiency.

Bluefin Tuna Fishing

2 Bluefin in one trip!

The excitement and energy in the air from strike to tail wrap, to boating the fish is awesome!

Bluefin Tuna Fishing Highlights:

° Offshore fishing trip, 15-30+ miles, depending on where best fishing is that day.

° Heavy Tackle for Giants, or Light Tackle for School Bluefin. We carry all sizes of professional tackle, fly rods to Penn 130s. Check out the Matsuura tuna reel - awesome.

° Best fishing July through October, but each year is different. This year tuna arrived early June!

Tuna on the depthfinder - hooked up minutes later

° Giant Bluefin tuna fishing is by trolling or chumming, anchored or drifting.

° Kite fishing for tuna, wind willing. It's an awesome hit!

° May encounter Sharks, Cod and Haddock, Whales, or Bluefin Tuna

Gloucester Giant Tuna - a nice day's work, Dave!
