The Good, the Bad, the Ugly …

Posted on 16th June 2021 by Gethyn Owen

The bad – 5am sail to get out, catch some fish and beat the F6 early afternoon. The very bad – the fish on the first wrecks were still sleeping, only a few small pollack for our effort! The ugly – 20 miles off, the morse cable on the gear box snapped, couldn’t go forward, couldn’t go astern. The very ugly – The Wookie! Fortunately the cable snapped a few inches from the gear box. A little redneck engineering between Matt and myself had us back in action within 30 mins. Cheers Matthew for your help The good – after […]

The wrecks are rammed … full of fillets

Posted on 13th June 2021 by Gethyn Owen

Another cool box filling day offshore recently. Fish every drift on a lovely summers day. The first wreck held a bounty of codling between 3 & 6lb. We moved on after a while in search of bigger fish and the wrecks offered up countless pollack, with plenty of doubles to bend the rods Great fun and superb fishing. More photos in Gallery 265

Plenty of pollack

Posted on 9th June 2021 by Gethyn Owen

Early sail on Monday morning to beat the weather front moving in that afternoon. Setting off in calm conditions it was hard to accept that by early afternoon we would have 20mh winds blowing up the Irish sea. Setting off at 7am, we were thankful that the fish played ball, with pollack on every drift for My Way 2 regular Stephen Hughes and his friends on their first wreck fishing experience. .

1st official wrecking trip of 2021

Posted on 2nd June 2021 by Gethyn Owen

We enjoyed our first dedicated wrecking trip of the year yesterday, 01st June 2021. Fortunately the fish were feeding in great numbers. No double figures, but fish every drop averaging 5-6lb A great start to our wreck fishing season, numbers will hardly increase with every drift producing one or two fish, but the sizes will grow steadily as we move forward. More photos in Gallery 265 Great day afloat yesterday. Pollack every drift, no monsters this time, but boxes full of pollack and coalfish averaging 5-6lb. Bumped into Kit Dunne aboard Castle Maiden from Wicklow Boat Charters, lovely to catch […]

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Our first adventure onto the wrecks yesterday and the guys did well! It’s early season for us, we normally start our wrecking trips early June. But having researched a few wrecks that we’ve never been too I was keen to locate them more than anything and judge the potential. Having assembled a Motley Crue of My Way regulars we set off with some trepidation and excitement. Early season, varying depths, sea temperature so many things to consider but our day was superb. The first wreck delivered 4, 5, 6lb pollack with a solitary codling. All good for mid May, […]

Menai Wrecking

Posted on 30th September 2020 by Gethyn Owen

It was an interesting start to the day yesterday for our first trip from Port Dinorwic for 2020. It was an excellent forecast with the weather gods looking kindly upon us for a change. 8am sail though in the thickest fog I’ve witnessed for a long while. It did clear up within half an hour and left us with gloriously calm seas and sunshine for our 2hr steam off to the wrecks. Fish came aboard from the start, slow for the first half hour as the tide started to run, then it was a continual haul of pollack […]

Wreck Fishing updated & booking for 2021

Posted on 13th August 2020 by Gethyn Owen

The Anglesey coastline and beyond is littered with many different types wrecks (there are over 200 around the Anglesey coastline alone). The Irish sea has an abundance of both deep and shallow wrecks which play host to many different species of fish. Being part of the shipping lanes into Liverpool and the Western Approaches during WWII, many ships lost in battle and over centuries those ships caught in severe storms have been lost in these seas and now lie at the bottom having created their own thriving habitats for marine life. Fish that can be expected in and around wrecks […]
