Fishing outside club boundaries

I have today received an email from the head of the syndicate who hold the waters below ours on the Towy at Tirallen. He caught a person playing a fish well below our lower boundary at island cottage, this person claimed to be a member of CGMD and was fishing with two other people. If this person is found to be a member of this club and does not have a very good reason to be fishing on our neighbours waters he will be expelled from the club, we will also consider banning his companions. This piece of water has been the subject of many legal wrangles over the years and we will not tolerate the possibility of losing the beat through the stupidity of any of our members.

The syndicate in question is headed by a team of solicitors and they have informed me that they will prosecute the next time there is an incident, I don’t believe that this is a bluff and I have agreed with them as to this course of action. If this does happen, make no mistake – you are on your own and the club will not even attempt to support you.

Salmon broodstock collection for Towy restocking

This is an appeal by Viv and Olwen at Llynyfan Hatchery, in conjuction with CFF they have done great work in boosting the salmon and sewin stocks on the Towy. I would implore all members to support their work and thus protect their own fishing:

Llyn-y-fan Hatchery are now collecting Salmon/Sea Trout Broodstock for the Towy restoration scheme.  With the recent introduction of Mandatory Catch & Release on the Wye, for the next ten years (NO Salmon or Sewin can be kept by anglers), it is more important than ever, that we all make our best efforts to maintain and improve our Towy fish stocks.  Some pipes are now being placed in productive areas, these need only be used if the hatchery can not collect tethered fish, or fish are caught late in the day.  It is important to keep fish in the water, when tethering when ever possible.  If you require any further information, please call the hatchery on 01550 740208 if no answer, please leave your name and number clearly and we shall call you back asap.
Deep hooked fish, are NOT suitable for Broodstock.
Many thanks,
Viv & Olwen

Weekend fishing prospects

Heavy rain in all areas last night means all river levels are up.

The Cothi at Abergorlech looked very inviting at 9 pm with more rain on the way: it should mean the Sea trout will push up making for good fishing in the next few days.
