The Green Harbor Tuna Club

The Green Harbor Tuna Club, the oldest Tuna Club on the Massachusetts South Shore was founded in 1970 in Marshfield to promote recreational fishing for Bluefin Tuna. Over the years, the Club has expanded their activities to include a multi-species season long Tournament, as well as Cod, Bluefish, and two Bluefin Tournaments, one of these reserved for lady anglers only. In 1989 the Club added a Spring Masters multi-species Tournament. In 2000 the club added Wolfish, Cusk, Yellowfin Tuna, Dolphin and Wahoo to the interclub tournament, which runs from April 15th to October 15th, and removed blue shark to help preserve the species.

In 1985, the Green Harbor Tuna Club became involved with charity work and for many years, we have dedicated an annual tournament to raising funds for a cause. Each year, we choose a charity and an event for the Club to contribute to. These events have been especially rewarding experiences for the Club members.

In 1995 the Club celebrated its Twenty Fifth-Anniversary year. The festivities included a year-end social of over 180 members and guests to celebrate our 25th.

The GHTC tournaments are geared towards good family fun, friendly competition, Club camaraderie, and responsible sportsmanship.
