Tuna
While not a guaranteed target, tuna fishing out of Marina, California, is possible during certain times of the year, especially for Albacore. The key is finding warm water currents that push up close to the Monterey Peninsula. Late summer and early fall (August-October) offer the best opportunities. Keep an eye on sea surface temperature charts and chlorophyll readings to locate these favorable conditions. Trolling with feathers and jigs is a common technique, but live bait can also be highly effective when tuna are finicky. Access to tuna grounds requires a seaworthy boat capable of handling offshore conditions. Chartering a boat with an experienced captain is highly recommended, as they'll have the knowledge and equipment to locate fish and navigate safely. Be prepared for long runs offshore and always monitor weather conditions closely. Remember to check current regulations for size and bag limits.
