flynny Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Black rock at treardur bay, it gets really busy at weekends though and a lot of rubbish gets left by the tourist, I go early doors during the week, just pop into the life boat station and ask directions to the spot, its a short walk from the beach, atb flynny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted July 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Good man flynny, it would probably be a Sunday when I go, so it will probably be packed ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flynny Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Good man flynny, it would probably be a Sunday when I go, so it will probably be packed ! No probs mate, Id go very early doors mate, within half hour you'll have a bag full, I used to drop a line in off the rocks at the back of wylfa power station, very deep warm water straight off the rocks I have another spot but its only accessible by permission, Which I have, ATB Flynny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royboy Posted July 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Anymore hidden gems for me to fish and chill on my own ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgun Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I went to college and worked in the area and had good fishing at point Lynas where the pilot boat goes from, Llandwynn island after a walk and Penmon, most deep water rock marks should produce mackerel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted July 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Cheers mate, hopefully I will try and go this weekend, it's a 2 hour drive so want to get to know a couple of places before just turning up, if there's any tackle shops open on Sunday maybe they will give me some pointers and all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanj Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Cheers mate, hopefully I will try and go this weekend, it's a 2 hour drive so want to get to know a couple of places before just turning up, if there's any tackle shops open on Sunday maybe they will give me some pointers and all There used to be a bait shop near menai open on a sunday. You could try fishing off the rocks below Hewitts field (can camp there too) at Benllech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry P Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 There are plenty of places on the island for mackerel, and shops for bait, if your find yourself over the Trearddur Bay/ Holyhead area I can meet you and show you a couple of marks for Mackie.

39TDS Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Mackerel Rock. If you really can not find out where it is by any other means then pm me. Do not go on the weekend it is full of people who think it is acceptable behaviour to leave as much rubbish as you can imagine. Personally i would like to throw them in and shoot at them until they sink but that kind of thing is frowned upon. At this time of year it is light until 10pm, makle the most of it and go in the week, just not when i want to go. Unfortunately for me and more importantly the people of Wales, in these times there isn't a quiet time other than weekdays and school time.
