    Report on-board Supreme

    I had my fishing trip yesterday on the 'Supreme' with 8 other members of my family. What an experience!! It was my first time fishing with a rod and i was shown how to do it by an excellent skipper. Our Skipper was Steve. Steve showed me how to work the rod, cooked us all some pasties, made tea and coffee and gave help and advice. Would i recommend the trip? Boy would I! The experience is just amazing. You get to take your catches home!! Im eating mackerel with bread and butter as I'm writing this. BEAUTIFUL tasting fish! Go On the trip and you will want to go again and again and again...

  • 07/2012 Fishing Report by Gethyn Owen on My Way 2 (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)

    Jul 2012 by Gethyn Owen

    Report on-board My Way 2

    Brilliant fun day inshore today with Andy and his 3 lads, Tom, Harry and Freddy. The emphasis on catching plenty of fish and some new species for the youngsters to enjoy. The mission was accomplished with ticks for new species against smoothhound, whiting, spotted ray and grey gurnard along with a few others species the day was a great first time afloat in Holyhead for the young anglers.

    Another day inshore with big tides restricting our movement, but glorious weather allowed us to move around Holy Island and target a few different species. With a couple anchors around Holyhead bay and then using the ebb tide to drift around toward Trearddur Bay, the final tally was 16 different species for the day :- dogfish, whiting, codling, huss, dab, pouting, poor cod, spotted ray, smoothhound, pollack, coalfish, mackerel, red and grey gurnards, ballan wrasse & cuckoo wrasse.

    Sean was happy to land his first ever smoothhound and spotted ray during the trip, as was Matt, recording his first ever ray (spotted) having only just returned to angling after a break of many years.

    Menai Bridge angler Mark Dolben had a target of a cuckoo wrasse for the day, having landed his smoothhound with us earlier in the year; this though was going to prove a little difficult for us with the size of tide. An area guaranteed to produce would see a very fast drift, so we agreed to give it a few drift later on just before we ended the day. After 10 minutes of fruitless attempts in a couple knots of tide, Mark changed to a heavy lead in one last attempt to stay in touch with the sea bed and catch a cuckoo.

    As I called lines up & time to go home, Mark had a small twitch on rod, he lifted into the catch and the slowly retrieved his catch. Nice, not the biggest cuckoo ever seen, but when you nail your target, the success and satisfaction is equal to any catch!

    21 Jul 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Today saw the weather almost on the "perfect" side for a good cruise off shore and as the tides are fairly big at the moment we had a conflab before we sailed!

    The lads all agreed that a trip to the "wall" was in order . With the remnants of the Northerly swell left from yesterday and after a 27 mile steam we arrived at 9.0.am and began the hunt.

    Fishing was a little slow to begin with over slack but as the tide got moving on the ebb the fish started flying aboard! Again, the clarity is playing a major role in how we are succeeding on the day and the best tactic today again was the baited Hokkai traces.

    The shads and artificials are catching but not as well as the bait.

    A long steam out there but nearly always worth it !!!

    If you fancy a trip to the "wall" yourselves let me know when you are making your enquiries.

    Pictured is Lee Taylor from Liverpool with his best cod of the day at 9lb.

    Wherever you are fishing may your lines be tight!!!

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Plenty of mixed groups just lately on the Shy-Torque.

    A split group of lads from Liverpool and Silsden nr Skipton joined us the other day and enjoyed a really good days sport on the rough ground on the 9 mile. Plenty of codling and ling to around the 10lb mark.

    Most of the fish being taken on the baited Hokkai traces again today. Hokkai tipped with squid and fresh mackerel doing the job. An indication that the water below isn't as clear as on the surface. Continuing Northerly swells hindering the clarity on the bottom at the moment.

    Pictured is Chris Atkinson from Silsden nr Skipton North Yorks with a nice cod of 9lbs.
