"Dawn Venture" is my 4th charter vessel and an upgrade on its predecessor "Optimist"
I have been running charter angling vessels for 11 years now(1 year in Whitby and 10 years in PORTPATRICK). After leaving the Royal Navy after 22 years service , I take pride in my reputation that I have worked hard to achieve. I am a keen fisherman but gain more satisfaction from the fish you land than my own personal catches.I want every day to be enjoyable and individually successful and I will strive to achieve that for you .I am adaptable to change and totally flexible as to how you want your day to progress but will advise if your suggestions are not possible due to tides or wind or if your target species are not showing(for whatever reasons!).Hopefully we will have discussed your requirements before your arrival and the day will unfold as expected!
I hold all professional qualifications needed to operate from any safehaven in any weather and light but I do not hold the safety equipment required to operate night fishing trips but we can operate at dusk or dawn
I have a wealth of knowledge on techniques that I am more than willing to share to help you get the most out of YOUR day. My level of commitment to you the customer is unsurpassed and I will not stop trying for you from trip start til day end.I will be honest with you about the state of the fishing when you enquire and offer info about the best tides and times to suit you.I will do my upmost to accomodate every requirement of yourselves.I cant guarantee the weather or fish,but I can guarantee maximum effort on my part for YOU! If you enjoy the day out,tell your friends...if you didnt,then tell me!
From me,you can expect diligence,humour,commitment and enthusiasm..."Zeal does not rest!"

Fishing Report by dominic wilson
8 Oct 2024 by dominic wilson
"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
