Friday September 15th - Rec Tuna
Couldn't load pickup availability
This trip will be a great opportunity to target one of the most exciting fish in the sea with captain Cullen Lundholm of Cape Star Charters. Cullen's boat can take up to 6 anglers, but for this trip there will be a maximum of 4 anglers onboard. That way you'll have more elbow room for fishing.
During these trips you will be targeting smaller bluefin tuna in the 30-200 pound range. During the fall we are planning on fishing Stellwagen Bank or east of Chatham, unless we get word of a hot bite somewhere else. These are smaller tunas that you can keep and bring home to eat.
Techniques used could include casting with spinning tackle, vertical jigging, or trolling. All gear will be provided. Aside from bluefin tuna, you may also see different species of whales, dolphins, seabirds, sharks and who knows what else! For many people, these tuna trips have been a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Here are the details:
- Price: $575/person
- Max number of anglers: 4 (plus captain Cullen)
- Trip length: 8+ hours
- Trip time: sunrise: exact time will be emailed to you 24 hours in advance.
- Port of departure: depends on the weather and where the tuna are. Exact port of departure will be emailed to you 24 hours in advance.
- Area fished: Stellwagen Bank or east of the Cape (depends on where the tuna are biting best)
- Techniques used: most likely casting lures, but could include trolling, vertical jigging, or live bait (whatever's required to get a bite)
Every trip is different, and the technique used will depend on what's working best. Nevertheless, to help get an idea of what to expect, you can check out the following blog posts and videos:
