I have just gotten into bluewater fishing the last two years and I am curious how late into the winter everybody will fish around the Nipple, edge, 131 hole I know bottom dwellers are there year round but what about pelagics? THanks

I get the Bill Fish, Wahoo and Dolphin in the nipple and spur area (even Swords), but what about Tuna.  Do people catch yellowfin or blackfin there?  Trolling or chunking?  I am gathering the yellowfin bite is more a rig trip and the blackfin is more reliable at the edge or the rigs.  Am I wrong?

Tuna are definately more reliable at the rigs. Blackfin can hardly be called a tuna though, unless you're using light tackle. Plus, when you finally catch a decent yellowfin, you'll never intentionally mess with a little ol blackfin ever again.
