As Wells Harbour Day 2003 was cancelled this year due to expected building work, Conwy decided to go fishing with his nets instead, with help from the locals, on one of the hottest days of the year.
 
Depicted below are a selection of photos taken on 10th August 2003
on a typical Coracle Net Fishing trip.
