The Facebook page Portmagic featured Jordon Jones who posted: “I told myself today the first kid to ask me about fishing, I’m going to surprise them with it (fishing rod) and they were not disappointed - this is Leo all the way over from Sweden.

"I was in the harbour when he came right up and asked questions and started pointing at fish. I asked if he wanted a new fishing rod and the excitement could not be contained. Tight lines, young Leo.”

Jordon’s kind gesture was greeted with numerous positive comments including: “Wonderful! It’s great to celebrate kindness and thought for others” and “A fantastic young lad,well done Jordon”.

Jordon responded to the comments saying that he hopes to organise a fishing event for 2025 to encourage young people to get involved in fishing.
