Default Bluefin Tuna

Has there been any Bluefin landed in any of the NC ports? Any of the Hy-Liners down there chasing them?

There were about 25 boats fishing today and approximately 20 killed. Most of the fish were caught near the sea buoy. Capt Shane on the Fighting Lady got an 85" fish today.

From what I heard there were over 100 boats on the water, and it looked like a huge parking lot. Capt Shane on the Fighting Lady got an 88" fish today. Not sure how many came to the docks with fish.
