Who we are

The event is the culmination of six years of lobbying, co-design, fishing and data gathering; Three years of English CHART where we saw 3,400 bluefin tagged and released with important and vital data collected to understand the fishery.

The CHART programme brought millions of pounds of new revenue to coastal communities in the South West and continues to do so through the world-class Catch and Release Recreational Fishery.

And now a collaboration of key partners brings the inaugural bluefin tuna fishing tournament to the UK, to showcase all that we have achieved together and create an event that we intend to grow and develop to become a sustainable showcase of a world class fishery.
