Epic 12-Hour Tuna Showdown off Belmar

Get ready for the fishing trip of a lifetime with Reel C Charters in Belmar. This private 12-hour offshore adventure is all about chasing down the big boys of the ocean - we're talking monster Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna. If you've been itching to test your angling skills against some serious ocean predators, this is your chance. We'll run you out to the deep blue where the real action happens, far from the crowds and into tuna territory. Whether you're a seasoned pro looking for your next trophy or an ambitious angler ready to level up, Captain Chris has got you covered with top-notch gear and a boat that's built for the long haul.

What to Expect on the Water

Strap in for a full day of hardcore fishing action. We'll be leaving the dock before the sun's up and not heading back until we've given those tuna a run for their money. This isn't your average day trip - we're talking 12 solid hours of offshore fishing in some of the most productive waters off the Jersey coast. The boat's decked out with everything you need, from state-of-the-art electronics to help us find the fish, to comfortable seating for when we're running between spots. Bring your A-game and a good attitude because tuna fishing is as much a mental game as it is physical. We'll be using heavy tackle and employing various techniques throughout the day to maximize our chances of hooking up with these ocean giants.

Tuna Tactics and Techniques

When it comes to tuna fishing, we don't mess around. We'll be using a mix of methods to target these speedsters, depending on the conditions and where the fish are holding. Expect to do some trolling with spreader bars and daisy chains to cover water and locate the schools. Once we're on the fish, we might switch to chunking - that's when we create a slick of cut bait to draw the tuna to the boat. If the bite is really on, we might even break out the poppers for some heart-stopping topwater action. The gear is all provided, and it's top-of-the-line stuff designed to handle the brutal runs these fish are famous for. You'll be working with heavy conventional reels spooled with braided line, paired with stout rods that can take the punishment these fish dish out. It's a workout, but trust me, when that reel starts screaming, you'll forget all about the burn in your arms.

Tuna on the Line

Yellowfin Tuna are the sprinters of the sea, capable of blistering runs that'll have your drag washer smoking. These torpedo-shaped fish can tip the scales at over 200 pounds, though 40 to 100-pounders are more common in our waters. They're known for their beautiful yellow finlets and sickle-shaped fins. Yellowfin are typically more abundant in the warmer months, from late spring through fall. What makes them so exciting to catch? Besides their sheer power and speed, Yellowfin are prized for their sushi-grade meat, making them a double threat - a blast to catch and delicious on the plate.

Bluefin Tuna are the heavyweight champions of the tuna world. These bruisers can grow to truly massive sizes, with some giants exceeding 1,000 pounds. While fish that size are rare, even the "smaller" 100 to 300-pounders we typically encounter will give you the fight of your life. Bluefin are usually targeted in the cooler months, from late fall through spring, though we can find them year-round depending on water temperatures. What sets Bluefin apart is their raw power and endurance. Hooking into one of these beasts is like tying into a freight train - they're known for long, powerful runs that can strip hundreds of yards of line in minutes. It's the kind of fishing that separates the men from the boys, and landing a Bluefin is an accomplishment any angler can be proud of.
