Alantic Bluefin Tuna

In recent past I have pursued Yellowfin Tuna offshore following the favorable Mexican Atlantic Ocean currents with very good success. Heard rumors that a few Bluefin “Atlantic” Tuna were caught offshore near Zihua but when I visited the fish markets locally to gain information only Yellowfin were available for sale.” I prefer to catch my own”. I have been in contact with a few local fisherman when visiting Zihua and south along the coast but none reported any success for Bluefin. If anyone can share reports of successful catch’s for Bluefin specifically, please let me know. The international commercial harvest records do not separate varieties of tuna so their data does not aid in my research. Earlier, when the migrating Bluefin were present in the Mediterranean the previous May, I was rewarded with good catches south of Mallorca, Spain and the adventure igniting my desire to pursuit the Atlantic variety of Bluefin and I would sincerely appreciate any info to aid in my quest and future destination(s) along the mid Alantic coast.
Warmest Regards
