North Wales has long been established as a venue for smoothhound, with Holyhead being the mecca for those wanting to catch big double figure hounds in the area.

Fishing for smoothies in waters relatively shallow at only 45’ can be a very exhilarating experience.  Hounds first move in for us during early May, and hang around until mid-July. These fish often hit well into double figures with many in the hight teens. In the last few years we have landed 11 smoothhound over the 20lb mark, including two at 25lb.

During the Spring Bank Holiday, Monday 30^th May 2011, we are running a normal smoothhound only trip, with the slight twist that if you catch the heaviest, (weighed in our purpose made sling) you will be rewarded with a new rod & reel.
