Cornwall's Atlantic Bluefin Tuna fishery has rapidly become one of Europe's most exciting sportfishing destinations. Every season, large numbers of Bluefin Tuna migrate into the rich waters off Cornwall's south coast, providing exceptional fishing opportunities.
Our season runs from September until the end of October, when these magnificent fish are at their most abundant.
Atlantic Bluefin Tuna are renowned for their incredible speed, power, and endurance. Hooking into one of these giants is an unforgettable experience that challenges even seasoned anglers.
Silver Gannet has an outstanding track record in the Cornish tuna fishery.
During the 2024 season, Silver Gannet successfully caught, measured, and released safely over 360 Atlantic Bluefin Tuna from Mylor Harbour (skippered by Steve Porter and top crewman Mike Freeman).
This year, vessel owner Bruce Markham will be skipper and will be hoping to give our anglers the best possible opportunity of connecting with one of these incredible fish.
To maximise your chances of success, we employ a variety of proven tuna-fishing methods:
Our primary technique uses high-quality surface lures and spreader bars to find actively feeding tuna.
When conditions allow, live bait can be deployed to target larger fish and produce explosive visual takes.
An effective alternative when tuna are feeding selectively or when conditions make a different presentation advantageous.
The fish is carefully released to ensure its continued health and survival.
This approach helps protect the future of the fishery while allowing anglers to experience one of the greatest sportfishing challenges available anywhere in the world.
Spaces during the tuna season are limited and demand is high, so early booking is strongly recommended.
