    Report on-board Kestrel warrior 6

    So yesterday we had a birthday party on board lovely bunch of kids. First port of call was for me to stop off at #toolsandtackle in Newhaven where I picked up some snakes. my god I've never seen ragworm like it needless to say they were good. After seeing Sam I popped down to the boat. Meeting with Paul at #fortroadcafe this was the meeting point for my crew. We got to know eachother up by the café one of the kids think his name was cass said about catching mahi mahi so I new right then I had alot to prove. Once aboard I gave a quick breif and we was off to our first spot. Thaught I would give it ago on the lures. And it was quickly aparant it was going to be utter Chao's. After loosing quite a few lures and snapping a rod �� I decided enough was enough and managed to go onto the sand.this was also a wrong moove as we where all getting in a muddle and tangle's Galore. Me being a good sport I took it all In my stride.

    After all of the mess and Chao's I decided that I had to do something very simple yet very much pleasing. So after thinking to myself what I would do if I was a kid I had a brain wave and thaught about what #brightoninshorefishing fishy rob has told me. So with that I moved to a little bit of very basic fishing and bingo we had hit the jackpot. Fish after fish started coming over the side. We started off catching some pout but then bream plaice dabs small Pollock that all started to come over the side of the boat. Apart from all the loss of tackle seeing those kids face's light up made it all worthwhile for me.

    This is why I love my job
