Shane Porter
Hard Labour is owned and run by two brothers, Shane and Carl Porter. They have fished the Thames for the past 35 plus years, so have a lot of marks mapped out for every season and tide. Both are fully licensed and insured and have owned boats for the last 35 years, . Between them they have a vast specialised knowledge of the fishing marks in the Thames Estuary.
We aim to give our customers a memorable day out and can tailor a trip to suit the needs of individual parties. Beginners are always welcome aboard and where required we will offer as much or as little assistance as is needed to get you fishing with the correct techniques for the area.
