Radiance

Skipper: Kieran Collins
Base: Baltimore Operational area: 30 miles
out from Baltimore.

Authorised blue fin tuna boat 2025

Notes: Wreck fishing, shark fishing and common skate fishing are three kinds of sea angling that Baltimore is famous for, but most of the popular sea angling species of Britain and Ireland are found in these waters. And off Baltimore they are joined by a number of more exotic species, courtesy of the Gulf Stream. Fishing like this is no more than a distant memory in so many other places once famed for their sea angling.

We are involved in  tagging programmes with Inland Fisheries Ireland – in which we are tagging shark and common skate.

The Poppy J is a 38ft Aquastar with all the onboard facilities to make your days angling very enjoyable. We here at Killybegs Marine Services strive to deliver the perfect angling charter experience. We have over 40yrs experience in the industry and have the best skippers for the job.

Skipper: David Edwards
Licence: P5 Licence
Base: Courtmacsherry Operational Area:60 miles to sea from ports from Kinsale to Portmagee

Authorised blue fin tuna boat 2025

Notes:The range of fishing found within close range of Courtmacsherry is superb, with trips producing anything between 6 and 15 different species as a norm and in excess of 20 is possible if anglers are prepared to change methods and use different baits and lures throughout their trip. As a rule mackerel, pollock, cod and ling are usually encountered but several species of wrasse along with whiting, pouting, coalfish, bull huss, conger and many more are often added to the catch.
If you do choose to head offshore to sample the superb shark fishing available within 10 miles of Courtmacsherry, there is a very strong chance of encountering blue sharks and an increasing chance of bringing a porbeagle shark to the boat.
