Last trip of 2018

Posted on 31st December 2018 by Gethyn Owen

Yesterday saw the last of our fun competitions for 2018. All our fun comps have been generously sponsored by Pure Fishing (UK) ltd and this trip had a brand new reel as prize for the winner. Fishing was patchy at times as we moved around the Menai Strait looking for both quantity and species to add to the score cards. The day ended up with a respectable 9 species for late December, whiting, codling, dab, dogfish, ss sea scorpion, ls sea scorpion, poor cod, coalfish and also a grey gurnard. For quantity the lads amassed a total of 234 […]

Friday 27th October saw us fish the final day of our Pure Fishing summer & autumn species competitions.

Pure Fishing October competition day one

Posted on 10th October 2017 by Gethyn Owen

Friday 06th saw the first of our October Pure Fishing sponsored species competition days. Only 4 anglers took part in what turned into a cracking match and a battle royal between 2 pairs of anglers. On the stern, Zukia was determined to beat her Father Alf, while with bow draws local rod Mark Cain and Wirral’s Scottish international Mickey Duff tested each others abilities. All 4 anglers, hoping to amass a good amount of points to see them win the rod & reel combo on offer in October. With spring tides and a bay that had been battered with strong […]

Pure Fishing Sept competition

Posted on 22nd September 2017 by Gethyn Owen

A good day afloat yesterday for our Sept Pure Fishing competition. Weather was not the kindest with a strong NW breeze forecast, fortunately this eased quite quickly, leaving a fairly reasonable sea for us to enjoy within the bay. Our first anchor produced a good number of dogs and whiting, with a few other species including hound and strap conger. Similarly our 2nd anchor on the mussel beds, this time with a good few double figure huss added to the scoresheet and the odd tub gurnard. By the end of this point, Mark Cain and Chris Neden were only a […]
