Mackerel Fishing, Tanybwlch


On an occasion such as this, when a shoal of mackerel has come close to the shore, the fishing is easy for those who know how. Many of the fishermen and women have arrived at Tanybwlch beach, Aberystwyth, by car, eager to take some of the free fish home, and plenty of people have come just to watch. The harbour wall, the building that was once the town's TB isolation hospital, Pen Dinas with monument, and Allt Wen all feature.
