The Tuna is hit and miss throughout the year. It all depends on the water temperature.
The El Nino event brought Tuna all the way up to Santa Barbara which normally doesn't happen.
The San Diego boats could get you a better shot at the Tuna after March or April since the warm waters come through their area first.
Other than that, Rockfish are open from March 1st as well as other species except for LIng Cod which starts in May.
California Yellowtails can be caught most of the year. Not to be with Yellowfin Tuna which are warm water only.
