Name:  Matthew Todd

How long fishing?:  Since the age of5, where I began with my day fishing journey with my dad on the shores of Morecambe Bay. Lifelong happy memories that have fuelled my passion to become a professional fisherman.

Favourite lure/bait:  I love using Red Gill lures, probably because they remind me of catching my first big Pollack off The Eddystone Lighthouse in the 80's on the first lures I saved up to buy with my pocket money. As we never used lures fishing up in Morecambe Bay as the water was always sandy Estuary water,

Home port:  Falmouth Cornwall

Boat name:  No Pasa Nada 1

Boat registration:  SM131

Boat length:  6.2 Metres

Types of fishing:  Rod and live bait and lure fishing. When conditions permit I relish drifting wrecks with baits to wake up a big sleepy Turbot!

Who buys your fish:  Celebrity TV chefs, members of the public and I sell direct to fishmongers who want to be to give their customers the ability to identify their fish journeys through my tags.

Quote or adecdote:  "Find a job you enjoy doing and you will never have to work a day in your life again"
I'm very luck to be able to live and breather this with my professional fishing career.
