After a Great week of Bluefin Tuna Fishing the bite goes silent as the weekend cold front changes conditions. No fish for our group today for our first skunk on tuna in the last two and a half years! Theres no debate, tuna like stable sea and weather conditions. Although we saw good numbers this week the grade of fish was considerably smaller then we are used to in northern Ca.
