"DAWN VENTURE" will be operating with the Cullivoe Charter Fleet from the 2nd April 2025.
After fishing from Cullivoe for 7 years and working there for the past 3 years on "OBERON", I am well placed to take you fishing on the grounds North and West of Yell and all around the Isle of UNST fishing the famous MUCKLE FLUGGA LIGHTHOUSE & SKAW ROST.
I have over 200 GPS marks to choose from along with 3-D seabed visuals to enhance your chances.
Core business will be fishing for BIG cod/ling/coalies and haddock and I helped the guys in 2023 land a 14LB HADDOCK! this would have been a british and european record but wasnt submitted.We will also (by request) fish for pollack and kelp cod under the cliffs on lightline tackle.
Bookings are now being taken for 2025 and will require a deposit to secure the booking
