Welcome to my guide for visiting sea-anglers to this part of the Mid-Wales coast. I get quite a few emails asking for advice, so thought I'd put up a page on the area I know best. The shore fishing section currently covers the area from Borth Head in the south up to Tonfannau in the north. I tend to fish these because they are within easy striking distance of home!

Boat anglers are well-served from this coast. There are charter boats based in Barmouth, Aberdyfi and Aberystwyth. I do my boat-fishing from Nick Hughes' Offshore 105, Swift, based in Aberystwyth - see link below for lots of boat-fishing (Charter or dinghy) advice!

BAIT & TACKLE SUPPLIES:

Aberystwyth: Aber Discount Fishing Tackle: 01970 611200 - website at www.flymail.com; Aeron Sports: 01970 624830.

Tywyn: Barry's: 01654 710357 - website at www.barrysfishingtackle.co.uk; Bait and Tackle Centre: 01654 710046).

Borth: Shop on sea-front near newsagents (April-October only).

These shops all have live rag (best ringing to check) plus the usual range of Ammo-type frozen baits.

There are beds of blow lug in the Dyfi Estuary, plus a few crabs and harbour rag, but I've found the frozen baits are just as good in most situations - and they maximise fishing time!
