Not so much sharking out of Exmouth mate, this is a trip with a night out after, digs etc... I took my old man Alderley on a 3 day trip nearly 20 years ago, he's not a keen angler but loves the trip and social...so Exmouth would be a bit low par considering my brother lives there.lol got ya, ive got a charter booked a similar time to yours but wouldn't travel for it lol. after all this shit itll be good for ya, just a shame your leaving civilisation to do it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Got a rib here that has had nothing but engine troubles since we got it, should be ready this spring though... we'll be doing a bit of sharking in it this summer.. I do hope we don't hook a tuna by accident... Hope you have a good day mate. Try Mevagissey or Falmouth Kev if you want a good chance of accidentally hooking one. Quite a few been had down there.
