Hi, I'm Captain Tammy Gray with a Real Action, and I'm going to give you some tips today about the Marine wildlife and what to look for when you're out here blue fin tuna fishing in the Atlantic Ocean.

You want to get onto the blue fin; you want to look for some main key things. You want to look for some gannets. Usually, they call it a beehive—it's kind of like a tornado in the air where the gannets drop, you know, 60 to 100 feet out of the air, and they go down about 30 feet and eat on balls of bait. If you see balls of bait on top, erratic behavior in the marine life, then you're usually in the right spot.

Sometimes you really like to get in the bait and get your baits mixed up with a bait ball, and that's good for fishing too. Usually, you hang with the birds, and they won't lie to you. Sometimes they will, but most of the time, you can depend on the birds. The pilot whales also and porpoises, they like to, you know, get balls of bait together real tight and eat. They all kind of assist each other in getting a big old group of bait together.

You got to have the right water temperatures; you know, usually in the upper 60s and the lower 70s—that's a good tuna range. They don't really like that green water, but sometimes you find them right along the edge of the green and the blue water. It all depends. You know, fish are like people; some people like to be warm, some people like to be a little cooler.

I'm Captain Tammy Gray, and that was my tip for you on blue fin fishing, and I hope next time you're out in the water, maybe that'll help you out.
