The bluefin tuna bite continues to impress here on the Outer Banks, and the past few weeks have delivered some truly exciting fishing. These powerful fish are still holding in our waters, giving anglers excellent opportunities to hook into some big, hard-fighting tuna. Conditions have been lining up nicely offshore, and when the weather cooperates, the action has been steady with some really quality fish coming over the rails.
On recent trips we’ve been seeing solid marks and active fish, and it hasn’t taken long to get rods bent. Anglers have been battling some beautiful bluefin, with several fish in the “really nice” class that remind everyone why this fishery is so special. There’s nothing quite like watching a giant tuna explode on a spread and then settling in for the battle that follows. These fish are strong, fast, and put on an unforgettable show once hooked up.
The consistency over the past few weeks has been encouraging, and it looks like these fish plan to stick around a little longer. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to chase bluefin, now is a great opportunity to get on the water. Whether you’re a seasoned offshore angler or looking to experience tuna fishing for the first time, this is the kind of bite that creates memories.
Our charters are running whenever weather windows allow, and we’re ready to put you on the fish. Spring fishing is shaping up nicely, and the bluefin tuna have been the highlight lately. With the way things have been going, we’re optimistic that the strong action will continue.
If you’ve been thinking about getting offshore and tangling with one of these incredible fish, now is the time to plan your trip.

that does not slow down the bluefin charters, We are allowed to keep any fish under 73″ and there are a bunch of fish under that threshold out there. Yesterday, we relased 4 bluefin about 68-70″, caught a nice wahoo about 30 lbs and a few king mackeral. Not a bad day at all. Still time to get in on the bluefin action – book your charter today – www.fishinfannatic.com or call 252.473-7092.
