Caernarfon Bay Fishing

Caernarfon Bay (occasionally Caernarvon Bay) is an inlet of the Irish Sea defined by the Llŷn peninsula and Anglesey. There is some amazing fishing to be done in this region.

With a vast amount of sand banks and reefs, Caernarfon bay is a superb all round days fishing with fairly settled tides and shallow water depths.

We tend to fish Caernarfon Bay on the spring tides with Skate predominately feeding on the ebb tides down to slack water.

The bay can provide excellent sport on species hunting days drifting over the many banks in the area for Gurnards, Dabs, Turbot, Plaice, Skate etc.... A few wrecks around the area provide a great attraction around slack water to anchor up for Tope, Spurdogs, Skate and Bullhuss.
