It’s licence announcement day 👀

Best of luck to everyone waiting on that all-important email 🤞

As you’ll know, licences come with mandatory training. In due course, you’ll be given a list of approved trainers delivering a set syllabus — and there’ll be lots of experienced skippers on there to choose from, myself included.

If you fancy doing your training aboard Our Joe with me out of Brixham Marina, feel free to get in touch ⚓️

I’ve got availability from mid-May onwards. The course can be completed in a single day or spread over a couple of evenings, giving us plenty of time to go through everything properly and make sure you get the most out of it.

2026 Bluefin Tuna Charters Aboard Our Joe

With a strong 2025 season behind us, bookings for 2026 are now open.

⸻

📍 Locations & Dates

• Falmouth, Cornwall – from 1st to 9th August

• Torbay, Devon – From late August onwards

Due to demand for earlier trips, I’ll begin the season in Falmouth for around 10 days before returning home to Torbay as usual.

Fishing further west gives us the best chance of early action — there’s typically a 2–4 week window between fish arriving in the Western Approaches and the big surface bust-ups we’re used to seeing off South Devon.

⸻

🎣 Bluefin Tuna Details

Full Charter – £1000 per day
Individual spaces – £250 per person

All styles of fishing available:
Popping · Live baiting · Trolling

Top-of-the-range equipment supplied:
Shimano · Alutecnos · Howk · Tuna Gear · Outriggers

Big Game Fishing Holiday packages are also available to help you make the most of your trip and save money.

This season I’ve set aside some dates to run my shark trips out of Looe, Cornwall, while I’m down there for the legendary Shark Angling Club of Great Britain Festival.

I’ll be competing again this year, which means I can offer a limited number of prime early-season sharking dates either side of the competition.

⸻

🎣 Dates Available
• June 27th – Fully Booked
• June 28th – Spaces
• June 29th – Spaces
• June 30th – Spaces
• July 4th – Whole boat available

Looks like Official Bluefin Tuna Training is coming to Torbay this year 👀🐟

Good news for the future of the fishery.

If you’re thinking of applying for a licence this coming season, keep an eye on my socials — I’ll share the details as soon as I know more.

I’m really looking forward to passing on more of what we’ve learnt so far. It’s probably been my favourite part of the fishery to date.

With the 2025 season wrapped up, what’s one memory that sticks with you?
No pressure.

For some reason to me it was the inshore bait fishing for launce.

Finding the right bank, on the right tide, ideally away from predatory bass.
Seeing a string of launce come up and everyone just laughs, smiles, and enjoys these little creatures. It’s contagious for most.

It’s the only bait fishing I’ve ever had customers ask for ‘one more drift’ for 😝

Small moments!
