Fishing near Cardiff, Wales

Cardiff, the capital of Wales, sits at the confluence of the River Taff and Cardiff Bay, giving anglers access to both urban freshwater fishing and sea fishing from the bay and nearby Penarth. The Cardiff Bay Barrage created a 500-acre freshwater lake with 8 miles of waterfront, now a coarse fishing venue in its own right, while the foreshore and charter boats out of Cardiff Bay and Penarth Marina put anglers onto cod, bass and more in the Bristol Channel.
