CORONAVIRUS (CORVID-19)

In line with UK wide efforts to delay the spread of Coronavirus, we have taken the decision to close the Fishery at Llyn Cefni until further notice.
In accordance with UK Government Instructions people should not visit at this time and avoid all unnecessary travel.
As a long-established sport and recreational organization committed to protecting the public health of all our members and visitors, we believe this is the right thing to do and demonstrates our commitment to help with efforts to curtail the spread of the virus across Wales and the UK.
We will of course keep the situation under close review and will re-open the Fishery as soon as there is clear advice from government and public health bodies that it is appropriate to do so.
We realize that closing the Lake will cause disappointment however we hope people will understand the reasons for us taking this sensible decision.
We would advise members to follow the Facebook page for regular updates as well as the website.
Thank you all for your cooperation and understanding.

Used floating and sinking lines with hares nymph, damsel lure, Montana and others but had no luck, probably my casting and lack of experience is the reason I blanked. Probably won't fish there again unless on a boat. Most of the bank is hard to get to and not much space behind to cast and lots of reed beds in most places.

Cefni Catch Report week ending 25th June
As we approach the end of June, with longer evenings allowing plenty of fishing time some serious number of hatching insects can be seen. Catch returns continue to grow, with a good number of bags recorded by both visiting anglers and regulars.

Both bank and boat anglers are equally matched, while the fish seem to be moving across the lake, which is typical for this time of year. Temperatures continue to be mixed but good sport on dry fly has been had by some. Floating lines or lighter intermediates seem to be working well when the fish seem to be higher up in the water.

Traditional wets continue to take a lot of fish, with Invicta’s, sedges, bumbles mimicking most of the insect life fished in a wave or slight cross wind proving fruitful. Most lures and nymphing tactics continue throughout to be deadly this time of year also. Also evident is the amount of fry in and around the banks so possible tactics should be a fry imitation for some of the bigger fish. The fish quality continues with some excellent bags recorded with the average per angler around the 5 fish.

The Brown trout continue to be of excellent quality, some very good specimens have been caught lately. I would also encourage anglers to continue with the scale sampling when killing fish. Details can be found in the hut, with the research being carried out could shed some light on the fish growth within the lake both the native browns and stocked rainbows.

The working party have been working hard clearing paths and trying to clear weed which, is evident. Please try if you can to help and support any events held, this is also a great time for newer members to introduce themselves and gain valuable knowledge on the lake. There’s usually a cake and cup of tea after which is always welcome.

The Chairman’s Cup will be held this Saturday June 29th, fishing 6:00pm-10:30pm unless stated otherwise and all are welcome.
