Dogfish

A Dogfish on his first ever attempt at bait fishing

Do you remember that first fish you ever had fishing on the rock’s? well that’s what happened the other day on a rock mark on Anglesey. But before that it was a quick call to my local tackle shop only to be stopped at the door why I asked? he said you can only come inside if you have had both vaccines ‘wow ‘I wasn’t expecting that. Anyway soon after we arrived at the rock mark with our bait for the session on the rocks,we were lucky enough to be greeted with not a breath of wind and the sun was shining, what more would a new angler hope for on his first ever sea fishing adventure, but disappointment soon hit him with not even a single bite for two hours, just wait I said to him as many will know that fishing can be a waiting game,then his rod started to bounce up and down on the stand I could see the anticipation on his face as I told him to strike into the fish and to start reeling it in. Was it worth the wait I can definitely say it was as you can see from the pictures, lets see if he continues his sea angling journey from now on!

I think he just might!

The long finger of the llyn peninsula probes deep into the sea. The northern coast is mainly rocky and the bays are small. For excellent bass head to the storm beaches to the west.
