tuna
techniques as well as links to articles,
videos, pictures and bluefin charter boats. These
saltwater fishing links will provide more tips and information for
anglers fishing with squid rig spreader bars, green machines
and other tuna lures including the new
G-TEK system. This
saltwater fishing tackle will catch tuna on all of
the East Coast offshore waters. Our lures have been
top producers from Maine to Florida and have proven deadly in the
school bluefin tuna fishery off of New England.
Offshore Pursuits will
expand their product line in 2009. We will be offering discounted specials on bulk squid, spreader bars, squid rigs,
green machine trains and custom striped bass rigs. As well as featuring

Most
anglers agree that giant bluefin tuna fishing can be one of the
most difficult big game fish challenges the ocean has to
offer. Yet it is also one of fishing's greatest rewards. To
win a battle with a giant bluefin on an 80 or 130 class rod is a
thrill. But many anglers don't have that opportunity.
Especially since the resource has dwindled due to
over fishing by the European Union countries.
However, fishing for school
and medium tuna on 30 and 50 class standup gear can provide
the same thrills and is within the range and budget of most
anglers. Offshore Pursuits has developed proven tackle and
techniques to assist you in this endeavor. We will share
this bluefin tuna
knowledge with you and hopefully a tip or two will add
to the success of your next offshore outing.
The
tuna photos on this
site were caught on Cape Cod aboard the Maverick with IFGA
Capt. Jack Riley except for a pair of medium bluefin boated by Capt. Bill Regan
and a school tuna by Capt. Jack Rogers, all members of the Offshore
Pursuits Pro Staff. Also, the photo of Dave and his spin
caught giant at right was on the "Tuna Duck" in North
Carolina.
Dave and Eben with our
first market bluefin in 2008. We had a double hookup. The
75" tuna hit a rigged ballyhoo with an Iland hood. We
released the 60" school bluefin that crashed a naked
ballyhoo behind a Bait Shower Teaser.
Dave and Capt. Randy with a 900# bluefin caught on the
Maverick in November 2009 at The Figs.
As you all know the keys to
success when bluefin tuna fishing are preparation, timing, the right tackle and a
little bit of luck. Wishing you Tightlines.
