Tuna
While Cambridge, Maryland, might not be the first place that comes to mind for Tuna, offshore trips from this location can put you on some excellent fishing. The key is the proximity to the canyons and offshore waters of the Atlantic. Yellowfin and Bluefin Tuna are the primary targets, with the warmer months of summer and early fall being the peak season. Trolling with spreader bars, daisy chains, and skirted lures is a common technique. Chunking with baitfish is also effective. Before heading out, check the latest sea surface temperature charts and chlorophyll readings to locate areas with favorable conditions. Access to the offshore grounds requires a boat capable of handling the open ocean and a knowledgeable captain. Local marinas in Cambridge can provide charters. Tuna fishing is heavily regulated, so be sure to familiarize yourself with the current regulations regarding size limits and bag limits before you go.
