 That was brief and a bit exaggerated when it went by I am hearing.  
There seems to be nothing going on south of NE, including the edge... Maybe they hung in NY/NJ for too long and scampered by.
 
Watch, this will be a year they blow through the blackfish grounds in November while we are all anchored up watching....

				62" Tuna - SEC
			 
			 
			
		
		
		Sun 9/16 
Went to the general area I was targeting - SEC south in the 3-5 mile range offshore. Had sporadic tuna busting since sunrise along the 5-5.5 mile range. Couple miles south of Golf Ball decided to turnaround & work the 250-325' depth which was 3-5 miles offshore. Happy to share my son (with a little help from his Uncle & Dad) landed his first tuna. 
 
We decided to drift a while and about 10 mins later a school of decent sized tuna started busting bait 50+ yds away but heading in our direction. We patiently waited and my son placed a great cast and was instantly tight. Fish was a mean bastard and we fought on spinning gear for ~1.5 hrs before we safely gaffed it. 
 
Guppy - looks like we were in same general area, what type of boat were you on?

 There's a general boat/hull cleaning page (Willie Hoven - seems to specialize in cleaning SH boats down south) on FB that has provided excellent insight. I even wet sanded my boat prior to season to remove many years of scratches in my navy blue hull.
