Bluefin Tuna 3 Miles Off Oregon Inlet (Quota Closing Fast!)

Bluefin tuna just a few miles off Oregon Inlet… and the quota is about to close. We set up at sunrise, saw a splash, turned on it, and got tight in about an hour. Absolute chaos at color, a clean stick, and we’re dragging our fish past the bridge before 10AM. If you’ve ever wondered how close these bluefin can be to the beach (and how fast it can all happen when the bite is on), this one’s for you. Book a trip (up to 6 people): https://speechlesssportfishing.com We fish out of the Outer Banks (Pirates Cove / Oregon Inlet area). Even if you don’t ride with us—go with somebody. This fishery is world-class. GEAR SHOUTOUT • Lure: Mag Plug (picked up at Oceans East in Nags Head) • Yes… one plug can be $85. Tuna fishing isn’t cheap, but when it happens like this, you understand why.
