Ranked by how strongly bass show at each mark. The chip on the right is today's live fish forecast.
Best at dawn/dusk and on flooding tide near channel edges; use lures or bait (rag/sandeel imitation) in the flow.
Work the Teifi mouth end and surf gutters on a flooding tide; rag/lug or small fish baits, and dusk/dawn are best.
Best on spring tides and low light; work spinners/soft plastics along the rocky edges or float/livebait in the gullies.
Dusk/dawn and overcast with swell; fish soft plastics/spinners tight to the white water or crab/sandeel baits in gullies.
Work lures or sandeel/peeler close to the boulders and surf line; dawn/dusk and pushing tides are best.
Best around dawn/dusk on the flood; fish close in over broken ground with sandeel imitations, ragworm or peeler crab.
Best at dawn/dusk on spring tides; try rag/lug or small paddletails in coloured water; mind local byelaws/MLS.
Best at dawn/dusk on a pushing tide; try lug/rag or sandeel-style lures, especially after surf or coloured water.
Work surf tables and rocky edges; dusk/night best. Spinners/plugs in calm seas, or bait (rag/lug) in surf.
Best chance at dawn/dusk on a pushing tide; fish the gutters/colour line with lug/rag or small lures; avoid very low, clear water.
Best summer/autumn; fish surf line and rock edges at dawn/dusk. Try small sandeel/mackerel baits or lure/spinner when clear.
Best on flood/over high in summer; fish moving water and gullies with crab, sandeel or soft plastics; handle weed and snag risk.
Best around dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; work lures or fish sandeel/peeler in gutters and along the surf line.
Summer/autumn best; work soft plastics or spinners along kelp edge on rising tide, or fish sandeel/mackerel strip into gullies at dusk.
Dusk/dawn and overcast seas; work surface lures or shallow divers along gullies, or fish crab/rag in white water.
Best on the flood into dusk/dark; fish close in with surf. Lug/rag, sandeel-style lures and shallow divers can score.

Dawn/dusk and overcast; fish gullies/white water with sandeel-style lures or crab/rag baits.

Dawn/dusk with some surf; fish sandeel/lug or surface lures along wash and rocky corners.
Best at dusk/night on spring floods and after rain; try ragworm, small live/dead sandeel, or soft plastics worked along the channel edges.
Most likely at dawn/dusk on bigger tides; work tide rips with lures or float-fished sandeel/rag close to the wash.
