November 23, 2009

Night fishing for sea trout compares with the best in the country. Our licence's are very reasonable. Recent seasons have had some of the best fish returns for the whole of Wales and this reflects our intensive, consistent program of stocking both salmon and sea trout in our rivers from the Environment Agency Hatchery. Sea trout of 21 pounds have been caught and double figure fish are not a rarity.
Llyn Cynwch is a joy to fish set in outstanding scenery and regularly stocked with high quality brown and rainbow trout - exhaust yourself - fish our lake during the day and our rivers at night - when will you find time to sleep?!!
Accommodation in the area is of the highest quality ranging from high
class hotels through to well run camp sites. There is plenty for
families
to do from some of Wales best beaches through to fabulous mountainous
scenery with Cader Idris, the second highest mountain in Wales,
towering above. There are not many places in the United Kingdom
where you can
get such varied quality game fishing, a range of facilities for the family,
be surrounded by scenery second to none, see the Red Kite circle
overhead
and
have the
company of otters.
Come and enjoy!! This is God's country - there is nowhere like it.

Llyn Cynwch (2009) has continued to fish spectacularly well both for fly and bait fishermen. The quality of fish and size had never been better. Come and have a go and see for yourself!(now closed, but get ready for the new season). The lake has been extensively stocked with quality fish. The beginning of the season has been superb so far, the largest seen being over 5lb! Fly and bait have been equally successful. Send us your photos of what you catch to put on the website. Make full use of this wonderful opportunity to catch quality fish. Here is a photograph of a young local gentleman with an excellent catch of fish caught on the first day of the season. Hooked for life! (see our reports page).
The prices of our licences have been kept the same as 2008. This information is on our Licences page. (contact Marshall Davies, our secretary, for more details on 01341 422706). Important news (2009) For people fly fishing our lake (2009) - Llyn Cynwch - see Rules (Rule 10) on our Licences page. All rod caught salmon and sea trout cannot now be sold. The only source for these wild fish is from registered netsman who have to tag their carcasses. This is a new law effective this season (2009). Any wild caught salmon and sea trout now has to be tagged by a licenced netsman. If you are offered wild salmon or sea trout in a restaurant and have reason to believe that these have come from illegal sources, please contact the Environment Agency Incident Line on 0800 80 70 60 immediately. Note the other very important changes to our rules - 2009 - (again on our Licences page) - ignorance is no excuse! These changes are in line with changes to the rules of the Prince Albert Angling Society. The main reason for these important changes is the conservation of our salmonid stocks. Open Day - Dolgellau Hatchery - 20th December 2009 - 10.30 a.m. Everyone welcome to see salmon and sea trout being stripped. An excellent opportunity to observe first hand the valuable work done for the future of our rivers by the hatchery staff. Don't miss this. See the new update on the Hatchery Reports page as well.
