After commissioning Matthew Byers to build me a rod for sharking off the Wales coast, we decided to double up the handover with a good workout on some Scottish skate. Starting off aboard Leigh Taylor's World Famous Laura Dawn II five of us set out with the ultimate target of a 200lb fish.
Then I'm honored to be joined by my mate Lloyd Watson, newly crowned British Record pike holder with a 45lb giant. We set sail on my boat to hopefully put a first skate aboard my little vessel.
Massive thanks to Leigh & Gemma for their fantastic hospitality, Matt for arranging the trip and building me a beautifully crafted stick. The lads that joined us aboard the Laura Dawn II, was a real pleasure guys, had a brilliant day out. Finally International Superstar Lloyd for a cracking couple of days on my boat, what a trip so far!!!!
More to come for this trip, hope you enjoy the first instalment....
Cheers, Mark
