We’re a small team at Hook To Plate, but every role matters, from the sea to kitchen, each of us carries a big responsibility!
Fewer hands means more care and there's an incredible amount of passion behind everything we all do 🐟
Mark is our skipper with 40+ years of big game fishing experience and a passion for bluefin tuna, we are extremely lucky to have a skipper of Marks calibre at Hook to Plate. Mark is responsible for finding, catching, dispatching and everything in between when it comes to our tuna, including the extremely important Ikejime and shinkei jime processes. With the amount of hours he spends each year at sea dry land is alien to this man!
Curtis is our young, extremely talented angler and crewman, working closely alongside Mark to land these stunning fish. Curtis, like the rest of us
shares a passion for bluefin and all things fishing. If he’s not fishing aboard our boat you can bet he’s somewhere else with a fishing rod in hand. He is a former youth, shore angling world champion after winning in the world championships in Domburg, Holland and is a keen and fast learner.
Lance handles everything shore side, from transport and processing to distribution and sales. If you’ve contacted Hook to Plate, chances are you’ve spoken to him. His passion for bluefin comes from a long standing admiration for Japanese culture and seafood. Lance thinks applying these age old Japanese methods to our British bluefin supply chain is important to our brand identity and unlocking the full potential of this magnificent species. Safe to say he’s an absolute stickler when it comes to quality.
We're extremely proud of our team! 🐟
