My Way 2 Species Hunt suspended

Posted on 18th October 2020 by Gethyn Owen

With travel restrictions imposed for anglers coming into Wales we have taken the decision to suspend the 2020 Species Hunt once again until restrictions are lifted. With poor weather at the start of the year, 3 months of lockdown and restricted trips, the hunt has never the less been a great success with anglers adapting their rigs and skills to look for that next specie of fish for their tally. Despite everything we have still managed a total of 27 species for the anglers taking part:- dab, whiting, pollack, spurdog, thornback ray, bull huss, ballan […]

Having fun

Posted on 13th October 2020 by Gethyn Owen

We’ve been enjoying some great mixed fishing on the Menai Strait for the passed week. Our trips have been 5hr over high water and 7hr over low water, many a simple good days fishing and a few chasing species for anglers to tick off their tallies for the year. Anyone catching a fish aboard My Way 2, simply uses the boat species card while afloat and takes a quick photo of the card alongside their catch. This photo they then upload to the My Way 2 Species Hunt 2020 Facebook Group Page and we keep track of who has caught […]

Menai Magic

Posted on 2nd October 2020 by Gethyn Owen

Brilliant fun day for our first trip on the Menai Strait yesterday. We wanted to make the most of the sunshine despite the tide being a little too big to that normally preferred on the Menai thus restricting us to just a couple marks. We still managed a good few species, keeping us all busy through our 5hrs afloat – dogs, whiting, huss, dab, mackerel, sea scorpion, small tope and a fair number of small smoothhound. Looking forward to the months ahead chasing a wealth of species along this stretch of water. More photos in Gallery 262 COVID19 […]

The species are adding up

Posted on 18th September 2020 by Gethyn Owen

Our My Way 2 species hunt is keeping anglers on their toes as the season progresses. We’ve spent many days offshore this year with various trips, together with missing out on lockdown, the species days have been limited, however we are still adding to the list as weather allows. With big spring tides this week we spent our time moving around various marks trying to tempt a variety of different fish to our baits. We managed in collating a respectful number that included bull huss, coalfish, codling, corkwing wrasse, cuckoo wrasse, dogfish, mackerel, pollack, starry smoothhound, tompot blenny, pouting, poor […]

Thanks to Kev Howarth for this photo Great fun yesterday following Storm Ellens presence the end of last week. Big tide so we opted half a day on the drift and the other at anchor.

Hard work!

Posted on 25th January 2020 by Gethyn Owen

We had a Great day afloat last last time out. Whiting the mainstay of the day with 1, 2 and 3 at a time for all onboard. Yesterday, despite a week of lovely calm weather was completely different. Even the whiting played very hard to get, part way through the trip it was a desperate affair to avoid the dreaded blank! Fortunately everyone did catch from a mix of species, whiting, dab, LSSeaScorpion, pout and a few huss, sadly though nothing in any real number. It was a still a great time afloat, calm misty seas, a little bit of banter and […]
