Report on-board Brigand
Well ........ We suspected they were here when last year we were spooled on an offshore wreck and knew that they were here when we watched one take a Turbot from the side of the boat but today we landed our first Porbeagle Shark..... what an amazing fish!
To be clear we were not targeting Shark, just another day merrily boating Turbot & Brill as we do at this time of year when Rhys's rod doubled over. A 20lb mono - leader V a whole lot of teeth, well, it didn't look good at that stage. Nick took over the rod, lightened up the drag and we had a tussle on our hands!
Absolutely thrilled to see such a stunning and very, very rare fish for us in East Sussex.
Like many anglers Nick and I started out fishing ponds, lakes & rivers as kids where you pretty much know what your going to catch. The draw of deep-sea fishing for us is the unknown, or more accurately knowing that you always have a chance of catching something exceptional........ Rhys did just today.
Best wishes
