Water Proof in hot N.C. bluefin bite

North Carolina is the place to be for consistently good bluefin tuna action with a big spread of sizes. Capt. Mark De Blasio of Water Proof at Point Pleasant, N.J. reports as follows: “Our season has started off strong with great fishing down in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We have seen Bluefins ranging from 35” to 110” and all sizes in between. Some areas have been holding lots of recreational sized fish while others mostly Giants.”
