As of December 26, 2012 the count of giant yellowfin tuna brought home to the San Diego docks stands at 292. On this same date, fishing resumes for many of the boats in the long range fleet. The next batch of yellowfin tuna over 200 pounds will arrive back at San Diego with the boats returning over the next couple of weeks, more for the longer trips. We will keep you posted, so to speak.
