In the current seams of the Strait of Gibraltar, bluefin tuna cruise between two seas. Pure power: the first run can empty a spool, and every centimetre is won back with your back and legs. Satara targets them on live bait in the deep water of the Strait, often within sight of the Spanish coast — never in the open Atlantic. A physical fishery for motivated crews.
Where Satara targets it
Deep Strait water from Belyounech to Cap Spartel, departing Tangier.
Ideal conditions
