Seasonal Activity Chart
Tuna
Targeting tuna off Green Harbor presents a unique opportunity to intercept these powerful fish as they follow their seasonal forage migrations. This area benefits from its proximity to Stellwagen Bank, a known hotspot, and the relatively quick access to deeper waters. The peak season generally runs from late summer into early fall, when tuna are actively feeding on sand eels and mackerel. For success here, pay close attention to water temperature breaks and signs of baitfish activity; tuna are rarely far behind. A practical tip is to monitor the local fishing reports for recent sightings and preferred depths. Also, consider using live bait when available, as the tuna in this area can be particularly receptive to natural presentations. Remember to adjust your depth according to temperature and current, and be prepared for a serious fight – these Massachusetts tuna are known for their strength and stamina.
