Fishing Report by Gethyn Owen

Report on-board My Way 2
What a month April has been, weather wise we often refer to April showers, but this last month I think April has been through all the seasons, with a few days consisting of glorious sunshine, together with rain, hail snow and an awful lot of wind. This squall was sat above our intended fishing ground in Holyhead Deep.
We left calm seas, in bright sunshine and were greeted with a good stiff breeze, that then also through hail, sleet and full on snow mid April. It turned bitterly cold with ice sticking to the deck. Back inshore that afternoon; the sunshine once again blazed down upon us.
We have managed a good number of trips afloat, were some have tested our patience and kept us inshore, others have seen us venture into Holyhead Deep for successful hours catching big spurdogs and bull huss. Inshore we found a good mixed bag on every day, dogfish, codling, whiting and huss ranging from a few ounces up to double figures coming to the boat regularly.
Local angler Phil Crompton had not fished afloat for a good number of years, concentrating his efforts more on the shore. Wanting to find his way back into boat angling, Phil chose a trip to Holyhead Deep this week to kick start his angling escapades afloat. The rewards came thick and fast with plenty of bits inshore followed by some great spurdog fishing
I had avoided drifting the inshore rock marks for a number of weeks, sadly the [pollack were slow to move in and the waters far too cold still for wrasse. By Mid April, it was time for another try. Thankfully the smaller pollack were around together with a few coalfish,. Nothing big, but a start for inshore fishing and with fish ranging from 1 to 3lb, a steady flow ensured great fun for an early season session.
With an ever increasing species count, Aprils fishing improved daily with a great variety of fish coming aboard My Way most days

My Way regular Steve Harrison from Manchester, enjoyed another cracking day aboard My Way this week. As with most trips we started off inshore with a good number of doggies, small codling and small huss. Steve managed something different with a nice spotted ray.
Lunchtime we headed out to Holyhead Deep and were then rewarded with plenty of spurdogs and huss for the crew, with Steve also bagging up for him himself View Boats Page

Great day afloat today, little slow inshore - dogs, small huss, whiting, a solitary spotted ray and numerous 'micro codling' to a variety of baits. Mid afternoon we pushed off a little and tried a new mark looking for more quality spurdogs! It paid off, with spurs well into double figures alongwith some nice huss and dogfish.
One of the days best goes to Peter Williams who managed to set a new Personal Best with a great looking spur of 16lb 15oz View Boats Page
