Blue Sharks

For Blue Sharks we steam south west to North Cornwall and Devon coast area where there are good numbers to found up to just under 100lb in weight.

Blue Shark have a distinct colouration dark blue from above, bright blue on its sides, changing to white underneath on its belly.

Blue sharks are voracious predators, mainly feeding on schools of pelagic fish such as mackerel, pollack and cod.

The Blue Shark is more commonly found in deeper waters where it is cooler, the Gulf Stream influence on the West Wales Coast have produced large fish with many blue sharks over 150lb and some over 200lbs.

Strictly catch and release.
