Barely a bite in 6 hours. Were under the rocks, where you can't really get when the water level is higher. Used pellets and sweetcorn, feeder and float. It was quite windy, and cold for August.

1 carp. Sweetcorn. Blustery and cold. No signs of activity anywhere. Lake is evidently below normal water level.

I've walked around this remote location many times in the past and thought it was about time I gave it a go on a bright and sunny August day. It is set in a stunning and location and lies a few miles south of Builth Wells.
On arrival I headed for the south bank and set up a waggler rod and a feeder rod and feeding a mix of hemp, corn and pellets but no action on either method in the first couple of hours so I headed for the north bank and after an unsuccessful hour or so on the float rod I switched to feeder at long range and was soon rewarded with my first wild carp of around a pound. This was followed by a further 2 more carp to 2lb and a chub around 1 1/2lb.Fish caught on both pellet and corn. Now looking forward to a future visit with a little more knowledge in tow!

Got there early enough to watch the sun rise over the mountains. So pleased I made the effort. Fishing wise caught 2 carp and 1 chub. Fairly slow fishing, most seemed to be a long way out. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Thanks

JW caught 6 wild carp on a feeder with sweetcorn as hook bait. Two were 4lb, one was 3lb and the other three were all 2lb each. Although weed didn't seem much of a problem I still managed to lose a float and a controller and only had one bite all day. We fished where the stream from the bog feeds into the lake when the water levels allow. Lovely day weather wise although the wind picked up in the afternoon and changed direction so it wasn't in our favour.

Fantastic location, stunning scenery. Conditions were very windy with some rain. Caught 1 Wild Carp on sweetcorn that gave a great fight. Will return when conditions are more favourable for anglers.

Beautiful secluded water that was perfect while rivers in full spate. 2 wild carp from the edges. Will be back!

My first visit to Pant y Llyn. Extremely windy and hammering down for most of the day, making fishing all but impossible as I only had a float rod. Caught two chub around two pounds on a waggler fished straight into the wind. Saw four wild carp jump throughout the day. Very disappointing as this was a trip I was really looking forward to. Beaten by the weather. A wonderful place however and I am desperate to return during more favourable conditions.

Stunning day. So quiet we could hear the beat of the wings of the crows flying 100 metres away. Chap came along doing a bit of falconry. We had two wild carp, one 39cm long, the other 43cm long (which my son caught), both on sweetcorn. The larger one just on a float and the smaller using a surface float arrangement. Dead calm water, at some points it was so flat that ripples gave interference and Moire patterns.
