01/2013 Fishing Report by David Axtell on Seren y Mor (Swansea, Vale of Glamorgan)

Weather again played a big part with the fishing, seeing us stuck in port for long parts of the month. When we were able to get out cod were hard to come by but those that were caught were of a good size, mostly double figure fish, whiting have thinned out but if you wanted to fish for them dabs are there in good numbers.

Fishing for the month has been steady with large numbers of Whiting to 2lb 8oz and plenty of Dabs showing all within 15 minutes steaming of the marina. Again the weather has hit us hard with strong winds for the last fortnight but a few decent Cod have been caught in the last couple of days. Hopefully if the weather allows January should be a good month. Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to all who have supported us throughout 2012

Ray fishing is really good at the moment. Odyssey SAC landing 60 rays on Sunday between 6 anglers, with top rod for the day being Paul Evans with 16 rays. Top baits are mackerel and squid. Saturdays trip was a mixed party again the rays were there in good numbers with Declan Williams (aged 13) having a good day. Hopefully the whiting will arrive in the next few weeks.

Fishing remains steady when the wind allows us to go to our chosen marks. Smoothounds are still around in decent numbers, small eyed rays are now there in good numbers, with a spell of decent weather I`m sure the bream will come back in good numbers too.

Now that the May weed has started to clear here fishing has improved. Today`s party from Mountain Ash had a go at the Hounds, trip organiser Daniel Grant got off to a flying start with a nice hound first cast. The fish came to the boat steadily all day with a total of 79 being landed throughout the day. Top rod for the day was Luke Lewis with 18, but Matthew Parfitt pushed him all the way finishing on 15. Daniel also landed a nice Bass of 5lb 14oz which was returned to fight another day. Most of the fish landed today were in the 9lb-12lb bracket but after catching the first fish of the day Daniel also caught the last a nice Hound and biggest at 13lb 2oz. Well done boys look forward to seeing you in July.
