The west coast has to run too far to get into tunas to do it, generally. For them to fish them, they've got to go all the way out to Lloyd's ridge, which is something absurd like 200nm from Tampa. Out of Pensacola, Orange Beach, Biloxi, or Venice you can get into tunas MUCH closer. I can give you info on boats out that way if you are interested.
