If there is no air release, then I know it's most likely some form of Tuna.

Only when the water warms up. Late fall through early spring is not uncommon for us to yo-yo fish yellowtail in 200’ of water. They’re usually deep that portion of the year because the water temps are more consistent day to day than they are at the surface.
