Riverside Fishery (Maesycymmer, Mid Glam)
Breezy with sunny spells
Fished 12-4pm
What a great day it was! First time I’ve been fishing since September and really enjoyed myself.
After walking round yesterday we wasn’t expecting much in the way of fish, so our expectations wasn’t high. New it wouldn’t fish too well as its still basically the winter but we was going to give it a go anyway.
We thought it would be really hard to catch, try anything for a bite, but it was the complete opposite!
We took Pellet, Meat and Paste and caught a mixture of fish on all baits.
Commons around 8/9lb, F1s about 2lb, bream to 3lb, roach ranging up to 6oz and little gudgeon.
I fished where I was comfortable at 6/7mtrs. Dad chipped and changed lengths. We had about 5ft depth.
We didn’t use keepnets but estimated our catch (dad is usually very spot on with weight guesses!). Dad had around 40lb of fish and I had about 25lb. Was really chuffed and we both enjoyed the day a lot.
Wish we would of known about this place sooner as its only 11mins drive away! I think it would be an excellent place to fish on the summer evenings and cant wait to give it another go.
The fishery has other Coarse and Trout lakes which are good sizes just lacks abit in features, although there is an island. Maybe its different in the summer we don’t know.
We will definitely be visiting again, top facility’s (decent clean loo’s which is most important for me!), lodge which has restaurant/bar, nice owners and a nice fishery.
Great day out and great company with my Dad
