The easiest way to let you know of any changes is by text so make sure you opt in for text message updates. Please check our FAQ page for details on checking in, what to bring, and accessibility; this information will also be found in your confirmation email. Please note: Information as to what species may be caught is provided as a guide only and we can make no guarantees over what can be caught on particular trips. PLEASE NOTE: our boats are not commercial fishing boats and our trips are not intended for anything other than leisure fishing. We reserve the right to deny boarding to any person we think may be intending anything different. We do not allow large containers such as buckets or barrels on board any of our fishing trips, however you can bring a cool box, especially on longer (4+ hours) trips. Fishing in the Menai Strait [09/08/2025] Fishing over the last 2-3 weeks has been extremely challenging, particularly for table fish such as mackerel. We have had some success with catch and release species such as dogfish, but even these have been impacted. Obviously we will continue to do everything we can to maximise the chances of a good catch, we feel it only fair to warn you ahead of time. If you would like to discuss this further, please call 01248 810907 between 10:30 and 16:30 Monday-Friday.
