Example: Why is Waihau Bay, New Zealand, good for bluefin tuna fishing?

← Back to Educational Videos

Virtually all of the bluefin tuna caught by recreational fishers is caught at Waihau Bay on the East Cape of New Zealand. In this video I explain that Waihau Bay is likely to be a good spot for bluefin because of the relationship between current flows and the canyons that intersect the narrow continental shelf.
