Theophile Gonet jumps on the podcast to talk about his obsession with chasing giant fish across the globe. From bluefin tuna on spin gear in the Canary Islands to solo sturgeon missions in icy Canadian rivers, Theo breaks down the moments, gear, and grind behind it all.

He talks about growing up fishing with his dad in France, the tight regulations around bluefin there, and how he’s built a life around chasing different species around the world. We dive into what makes the Canary Islands one of the hardest places to land a tuna, why people still don’t believe it can be done on spin, and the brutal moment he lost the fish he trained months for.

From tuna heartbreak to sturgeon in the snow—this one’s honest, raw, and straight from a bloke who’s all in.
