Fishing Report by Gethyn Owen
on My Way 2 (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)
Sep 2012 by Gethyn Owen
Report on-board My Way 2
We ended August with another good run of smoothhound. In Holyhead we tend to get a late run towards then end of Aug early September however most of these hounds tend to be on the small side with the largest around 8lb in comparison to the smoothies in the high teens and occasional 20lb+ sharks from early season in Holyhead Bay. Never the less, anglers can have great sport on light tackle as Carl Burns proved by landing 4 hounds during one blustery trip aboard My Way.
Sadly, it’s been a windy start to September once again this year, with the vast majority of trips being cancelled We have the tail end of the latest hurricane to blow over the Atlantic to thank for the relentless barrage.
The month started with members of the Skegness Angling Club making the trek across the UK, to fish aboard My Way with 5 members also booking spaces aboard Spindrift. We spent the majority of the morning at anchor in both Church Bay and the Mussel beds slightly to the west. My crew, made up of anglers and novices to boat fishing were rewarded with plenty of fish, single double and treble shots. Where as the majority of the catches consisted of doggies, whiting, dab, codling gurnards and the odd huss, given the weather and the novices not having caught so consistently before the day was good.
By lunch time the wind had increased dramatically and with a 30mph due south blowing, we headed for the shelter of Holyhead Mountain and dropped anchor within Porth Namarch where again the catches over high water consisted of dogs, whiting and the odd huss. Un deterred the guys an gals soldiered on whilst tucking into sausages, bacon and eggs!
Once we had lost some water and tidal strength I upped and anchor and we went on the drift around the Chair Rock and North Stack rock ledges, here we caught an abundance of wrasse – ballans, cuckoos and corkwings together with the odd pollack.
The weather for a few years now has left anglers with challenging situations on many occasions, but if you’re prepared to take the rough with the smooth, test yourself and accept some days don’t quite go to plan a great fun can be had. The few trips that we have been able to get out has seen similar fishing with the bull huss being the only double figure capture. Some of the whiting have gone a good size for Holyhead in the summer, these usually arrive mid August and see many anglers taking a good bag of 1 ½ lb whiting home for supper.
Possibly the best capture for My Way so far in September has been our third new species ever. The Leopard Spotted Goby is the smallest specie that we’ve landed so far, but one that created great excitement for myself and captor Ari Jones. My initial call was a Leopard, but then struggled with the possibility of it being a common goby. I texted a couple friends and uploaded a photo to our Facebook page, where some species hunting friends confirmed the capture to be a Leopard Spotted Goby, happy days indeed.
Hopefully the weather will start to settle down soon as this latest weather front moves on. Happy fishing where ever you go :)
We now have the Tide Files required to accurately plan our trips for next year. If you are interested in a particular date or species to fish for please email or call to discuss the details 2013 Availability recently updated! View Boats Page

Inshore Bass fishing at Ramsgate continues to frustrate, one day we hit a feeding shoal and have it right off, the next day they are gone ! No pictures as the locations would be easy to spot !!!
We`ve had some fun days chasing different species such as the elusive Kent Wrasse. Thanks to Neil and Nigel for getting another species for me to put on the list.
Offshore the wrecking continues to provide consistant sport with quality Cod, Bass and Pollock showing at anchor and on the drift. Quality artificials such as the Rage Eels are working just as well as the livebaits on the drift. The banks are showing Turbot, Bass and lots of Red and Tub Gurnards, good fun fishing but please `give them some line` if you want to hook them ! The Plaice seem to have slowed down at the moment but we are sure to find them again any day soon !
The Tope fishing has been awesome with lots of PB`s set for experienced and novice anglers. Don`t let the fact you haven`t fished for them before put you off. We supply Quality end tackle and circle hooks so the fish are returned unharmed, you may also hire rods and reels for a small charge. The Tope will be here roughly until the end of October, so plenty of time for you to break or set a new PB on board Excel 2.The
Whiting are starting to show inshore so the big Bass will make an appearance again as they feed up before they depart for sunnier climes.
Hope to see you soon,
Keep it tight,
Dave.
