Patricia Rose Charters is one of a very small number of UK charter boats fully licensed to fish for Atlantic Bluefin Tuna. This species represents the pinnacle of big game fishing and is widely regarded as one of the most powerful fish in the ocean.

Our crew has been catching and releasing Bluefin Tuna since the earliest scientific study programmes, during which we played a role in helping to demonstrate that a sustainable UK fishery was possible. This long standing involvement provides invaluable experience and understanding of both the fish and the conditions required to target them responsibly.

The Ultimate Big Game Fishing Challenge

Atlantic Bluefin Tuna fishing is not for the faint hearted. It is a physically demanding and intense experience that places significant strain on both angler and equipment. When you are connected to a fish weighing 500lb or more, the power and aggression of these fish is impossible to overstate.

Our experienced crew will guide and prepare you as thoroughly as possible, from tackle and technique to safety and expectations, while we locate and work the fish. However, nothing can fully prepare you for the reality of being strapped into a prolonged battle with a truly wild game fish.

Licensed, Ethical Catch and Release Fishery

Atlantic Bluefin Tuna fishing in the UK operates as a strictly regulated catch and release fishery. At Patricia Rose Charters we apply the highest fish welfare standards at every stage, ensuring each fish is fought efficiently, carefully recovered and safely released in strong condition.

Fishing with us offers the opportunity to experience one of the most challenging forms of offshore angling while supporting a responsible, conservation led charter operation.
