    Report on-board Mistress

    We recently held a parent and child evening for one of my regular anglers, Mark, who has been asking to do one for a while to get his kids interested in fishing.
    He bought along a couple of the regular lads too with their kids. luckily as it turned out it was a lovely summer night.

    We picked them up after the festival weigh in and set off to the rock top, the kids were all absolutely buzzing, there was bucket loads of excitement, enthusiasm and energy!

    We arrived, the rods had been tackled up, so as we arrived I went round making sure everyone knew how to handle the rods and reels, and within seconds there were mackerel being swung in left right and centre! along with screams of that 5 now, thats 7 now, ive got three now and oh no that one dropped off !

    well after three drifts we had filled the boxes suffiently with mackerel, and were now catching and releasing! this was accompnied by sceams of thats 72 now, thats 65 now and oh no thats ones just dropped off!

    By 7pm i was feeling a bit run off my feet after being up since 5am, but a couple if the adults and older kids set up a chain gang gutting and washing the mackerel.

    by the time we had finished gutting and washing there were only about 3 die hard kids still fishing and we called it a night arriving back for around 745pm

    A happy bunch at the end of the trip
