Saturday 3rd August 2013 to Saturday 10th August 2013

Was on me hols in Anglesey (quelle surprise)!  Not much exercise but a bit of fishing and quite a bit of kayaking done. 

Over the week we caught 1 x bass (really close in) , 2 x plaice (v small), 2 x pollock (one tiddler, one 3lb both from kayak in deep water), 1 x dogfish, 1 wrasse at low-water - around a pound.  All fish went back apart from the 3lb pollack which went on the BBQ.


Was surprised that there weren’t more fish about really - think it’s the quietest week we’ve had in August.  It might be due to the masses of weed that were being washed up?  Still the night-sky was awesome with no end of shooting stars on a couple of nights - sometimes you don’t have to catch it’s just nice to be out there.

And must mention my first smoothhound which was caught from a rocky mark at about half an hour after high-water.  It went like a train and I thought for a moment it was going to be a decent sized bass - still nice to get a new species.

Climbed Holyhead Mountain (almost to top) with Janette, Lucy and the pooch but couldn't remember how you get up the last bit and it looked a lot more of a climb than it did last time so we called it quits at that. http://www.endomondo.com/workouts/229919195/7469884
