Welcome to Devon Bass Charters!

If you want to catch 'BASS' on a professional fishing boat with a skipper who catches Bass for a living then our charters are an excellent place to start.

Devon Bass Pro Charters are ideal if you are a beginner or a seasoned angler.


I do not trawl or gill net and all fish
are landed by rod and line.

Hi my name is John Wallington and
I am the Skipper of your vessel 'OUTCAST'!

I am 47 and live where I fish. I have been fishing for the last 39 years so I think it is fair to say I am an experienced angler! My vessel 'Outcast' is fully licensed and registered. I am a commercial fisherman who strives on being one of the most eco-friendly and sustainable fisheries in the UK.

I have skippered my own boat for 8 years in commercial Bass fishing and this (2011) is my 4th season chartering. I am the only skipper who offers your next trip free if no bass are landed on the boat (terms and conditions apply).

Outcast and I, are registered with the South West Handline Fishermen’s Association. For more information to go www.linecaught.org.uk and search for Tag30.



80% of our income arrives from catching bass on rod & line,
which is supplied to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall at River Cottage.
We also send fish to Plymouth Market!
