Hopefully, these magnificent fish will not be over exploited they are so amazing to see and the fact that they are back is fantastic. Lets not ruin it with greed and stupidity !!!
I’ve been down there this year We had 6 in 5hours up to 94 inches We seen thousands of them out there it was like a breeding pool No exaggeration One pod was thousands of tuna making the sea bubble 400 meters wide We were hooked up instantly every time hence we landed 6 in 5 hours It’s insane and I believe the best fishing in the world The boat we were on landed 174 tuna last year to 950lbs No where else can match these numbers
It's amazing when you come across them in these numbers ! That's some good fish 👍🏼 we've had days where it's like that and days where it's hard going. Are you fishing from Meva ? Nice one
Gents - from a fisheries scientist that has worked on tuna for a number of years it is good to see you using best practice for the retrieval/processing and storage of BFT onboard. I hope the markets appreciate your efforts
🙏 thank you, great to read. We are endeavouring to do it justice. If you have any additional things we might be doing, please share with me. We are always looking to improve. Cheers 👍🏼
Nicely done very professional, I was a skipper on a pole boat 8 pole men 8 gaff men & a bait man & fish packed in ice some 30 years ago of South Africa coast exciting times but only caught longfin & yellowfin never ever saw bluefin or big eye. Good luck with your endevour.
Nice job. I am glad to see you installed rod holders on your boat. When you were fishing for other species I would always cringe when a rod leaning on rail would get knocked over.
The Giant Bluefin in the 70s 80s were abundant of the New Jersey coast. The quota given to us was for whole Mid Atlantic region of Eastern seaboard. Sometimes the quota was filled before fish showed up in local waters.
I see you on the Helford all the time im normally fishing in the pit for squid Saw you come in the outher day you had had 2 more then 👍 well done lads....... see you again this week no doubt. Wow there are soooo meny bloody tuna out there
This depends on multiple factors. They are valuable, but certainly not as much as everyone would probably believe. The prices vary on a daily basis tbh. If you'd like to see market prices, check out Newlyn Market prices online 👍🏼 it gives you an idea of what fish sell for, including BFT. Cheers
YOU'LL NEED QUITE A FEW TUNA, TO PAY FOR ALL THAT EXPENDITURE, BEFORE YOU TURN A PENNY... BUT DON'T CATCH TO MANY, YOU KNOW WHO WILL CUT THE QUOTA... AND THE FRENCH WILL CRY YOUR CATCHING TO MANY 🤣🤣... EXCELLENT VIDEO, STAY SAFE, FROM A FELLOW COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN
I'm split on this. They are just recovering and an important part of the ecosystem and are major earners for sport angling, but this is selective and fishing is a commercial process and fishers should be able to use the resources around them. I am sure small scale catching like this is good for everyone as long as it is monitored and no licences are given to larger boats.
Thanks for commenting. Our aim is management through responsible fishing. We have a limited quota. These are great fish, and I hope they are here to stay in the UK waters.
@@F20_forager As someone who studies shark evolution and marine systems in general I am really interested in following this. BTW, is that the Helford River you re based in? Looks like it.
The minimum size for our license is 30kg or 115cm fork length. My understanding is that a fish that is over the minimum size will have had at least one breeding season. Cheers
From what I personally see on the eastern seaboard of the United States Bluefin have been on the decline since the 1970s. The Japanese love of sushi sashimi ect has had a huge impact
Yes, that’s the problem British fishermen will be regulated, but as fish travel to foreign waters other countries will kick the ass out fish stocks until they become so depleted no one will benefit .

Cheers, matey 👍🏼 good to hear from other fisherman. Sounds like quite a setup you guys had. More videos are coming soon 😎
Hats off to you guys. Utter respect for the fish in life and death. Beats whiting, pouting and mackerel bashing. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks 👍🏼 more vids on the way soon, cheers

Cheers Mark, yes we are uping our game. It's time to take more care of the kit. You're definitely right there 👍🏼

Nice one best of luck with your new adventure
Thank you 👍🏼
Good for you guys. The Forager is the little boat that could

Hi very intresting video well done on your first bluefin tuna, just out of intrest how much would that fish be worth roughly, cheers Paul.
I’m interest to know too!

A 92kg landed at Newlyn and priced at £1652.32
As a fisherman I think they should put blue fin back ,
Thank you for your opinion
Thanks for sharing your video! just curious what the size limit is on these?
The size limit for our commercial license is 30kg or a fork length of 115cm 👍🏼

I guarantee 1000% in 5 yrs a fisheries minister will say Bluefin Tuna have steadily declined since 2024..

Just as the stocks start to revocer they'll be out fished again ..
No they wont. Not by UK boats!

THE FRENCH HAVE HAD QUOTAS TO CATCH TUNA IN UK WATER FOR YEARS... ITS GREAT TO SEE UK FISHERMEN GET QUOTA TO CATCH TUNA IN UK WATERS AGAIN
Check your facts ; you are completely wrong.
