What's happening along the east coast fishing scene right now, bluefin tuna fishing is happening and it's a hot bite! Here is one of a ton of fishing reports on the Virginia Fishing Forum. Check it out and get out there, the bite is on!

Tidal Fisher Healthy Grin reports, "The Virginia bluefin bite just will not stop. Crazy fishing. It is February and we are still catching bluefin tuna right along the beach. It was beautiful today, sunny and calm. There were only a few boats out along the VA Beach oceanfront but those out there were tangling with bluefin tuna. The best bite was from the Golf Ball to the condos at Sandbridge from 2 to 8 miles off of the beach. We hooked two. We pulled the hook on one. Michael Hurst (Gloucester) caught the other one. Both were hooked on the same
Stretch 30. This was Mike's first-ever bluefin tuna. It had a fork-length of 62 inches and weighed 133 pounds. While weighing the fish at Inlet Station Marina, another boat came in with a tuna twice the size of ours. They caught it on a 6/0 after a 3-hour fight. A 47-pound striped bass was also weighed in while we were cleaning our tuna."
