Catch Fish from Cardigan Bay: ABERAERON

[@dannycoe3755]

Nicely fished the beach seemed challenging, and that's the beauty of exploring different techniques when visiting new venues. Really enjoyable content 👍

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Thanks Danny - yes, I very much enjoy the challenge of fishing somewhere I know next to nothing about!

[@barticoch]

Wow! Nice to see you fishing some local beaches to me. Tresaith for Bass Rod! Tight lines.

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Thanks - hopefully I'll get round to Tresaith at some point!

[@konstantinosferko]

[@johnwiggins4458]

another very interesting and informative video looks like a very nice fishing spot best of luck on the next outing.

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Thanks for that John - yes, I think it has some potential.

[@nicholascavie2464]

Can’t beat a nice rockling 👍🏻👍🏻 lovely size too.

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Not my favourite species - but I don't mind them this size!

[@owainworman]

lovely to see you fishing where i grew up. These days where I live in london I fish many of the spots on the thames and south coast and kent you film. on the cardigan bay, there is an excellent book by local angler John Mason that covers the whole coast in detail and well worth a read for marks and tips

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Many thanks for that. A good shout - I'll have to check out that book at some stage! However, I do also like to fish venues I've not seen before, or know very little about.

[@dangerranger9492]

Thanks for the video mate,that rockling would of won a few comps in the past 😂

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Thanks - they don't come that size in Kent - at least not the ones I catch!

[@simonyoung908]

Never knew Rockling got that big !!

[@rodsangleuk6283]

If they were all this size, I wouldn't be disappointed about catching them!

I fish there a fair bit, last week in same spot you were during last part of incoming tide 2hrs up to high, afternoon, had 2 Bull Huss a 4 Doggies and last was a small eel, all bit within 10 mins of bait in water (small pieces Mackerel with tip of squid. Only using one 11ft rod and holding it as it was pretty rough and waves crashing, came from pretty close in as well which surprised me as was only baptising a new cheap £20 Mackerel rod. Have had plenty off Doggies from there along with Turbot and Codling and even Black Bream further south from the Rocks. It can be a bit snaggy, best to check at low water, depends on how the sand moves as well as sometimes it completely covers the small boulders and weed so is clean sand, other times it uncovers the snags. I always use lead lifts in any case, easier reeling in. It is very snaggy with those Pebble Boulders and weed the nearer you get to the rocks on the left. I only live 10-15 mins away, I also fish Aberysthwyth (South of Harbour and Stone Jetty) and occasionally LLanrhystud, used to fish a lot at Ynyslas as a kid as we had a caravan down there 50 years ago lol.

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Nice of you to pass on such useful information - I'll be back there sometime.

[@DelDredd]

@@rodsangleuk6283 Was fishing same spot over Low water today, overcast and pretty calm, 45 mins before low had 3 Huss on 3 casts (all bit less than 10 mins of bait in), had to wait 1.5 hours after low for the next one but it had gone a bit brighter with sun breaking through, probably put them off a bit.

[@princeoffish]

I’ve fished here whilst on holiday. Was pretty much a dog fest with a few other species thrown in .

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Yes - that what it looks like to me!

[@martincotter6370]

HiRod are you fishing your way round the coast? I live in Aldeburgh now, more your stomping ground. I fished Anglesey a lot with my father as originally from Liverpool. Great content, thank you. 😊

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Plenty of marks still to cover in Suffolk - I'll be there once the soles start showing again! I think it might be a while before I get round to Anglesey - have many more venues in Cardigan Bay in mind first.

[@tomcline8849]

Good video as usual Rod, can I ask you what rods you were using please.

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Thanks Tom - they are Colmic 07s.

[@stuartbromley5328]

North Beach is the better mark ......Still bit mixed ground ,but deeper water ..........both marks are better in autumn .....first of codling show .....further to left ground is cleaner so more chance of rays

[@peteretheridge3309]

Hi Rod I used to fish around that area a lot I caught some good bass this time of the year at llanon over high water be prepared to loose gear there though

[@rodsangleuk6283]

Great shout as well - I'll have to give it a go sometime.
