John, I took my 5 year old grandson on out boat at the weekend for the first time, he loved it and never stopped asking questions as they do. Anyway picked him up from school today, checked in on him as he was so quiet, there he was watching one if your videos on fishing filleting. Is this where my fish comes from grandad was the question, yes love said I. I love fish he says. Great videos as ever. Regards Col

Always find myself being impressed with eels being caught. Always remember one of the first times I tasted eel it was deep friends and coated in batter. Out of this world. Lots of bones though. But the taste was superb. You certainly have a lot of luck when going on these fishing trips. An entertaining and enjoyable video upload. Thank you for sharing.
