1 fish caught and returned - about 1/2 pound. Caught on a olive emerger. Fantastic location - even if the fishing was hard work that day.

A great day do be up at Bugeilyn. Slow fishing in the morning, sporadic rises now and again but picked up in the afternoon. Caught in excess of 20 feisty wee brownies, lost count before packing in early evening. Busy place today, 2 in the boat and a season ticket holder on the bank. Another angler did turn up late afternoon, half an hour out in their float tube and then left, I thought that was a bit odd.

Two small trout, one 9" & one 7" on bibio type fly and a small dark brown muddler.

Found the location easy with the directions given, no probs with the acess track, just took it very steady and the old 2w/drive Volvo made it right down to the boat house (I might add you do run a risk of cutting your tyres on the slate stone track covering though). Low cloud, wind & rain for about 3hrs so could only see about 1/3 rd of the Llyn but then the sun came out and it was good for rest of the day. Managed to take 10 trout up to 3/4lb & lost about 8, on dry & wet fly, wets. Used gh spider, gh buzzer, bibio, dry sedge, hawthorns, bibio, all in black.
Had a really good few hours with the little but hard fighters on light set up. Venue & scenery stunning!!! Will I return? You bet! Thanks once again wuf for the chance to fish such great locations.

Only had a couple of hours. Great location. 1 small one on a cruncher and one beauty just under 1 lb on black ant sub surface which alone made the journey worth while

Windy. Difficult conditions. Fished 2 hours late evening. 6 trout. Floating line. Silver Invicta.
B&B in Llanidloes. Coach & Horses B and B (former pub), very clean, large rooms, good breakfast. Recommended.

A typical August day at Bugeilyn. Fog in the morning and hard rain in the afternoon. Enough weather windows to produce plenty of action and produce a fun day for 4 of us in this mountain fastness. About 20 trout actually released and umpteen opportunities missed. They may be small but they are quick! Black flies just under the surface seemed most effective.

Only managed about 3 hours fishing, after a long day on Nant y Moch reservoir the day before my teenage daughter was beginning to show signs of being bored! Still managed 14 feisty wee trout, best in the cloudy calmer spells, sun out, wind up, fish down. Is it me or have the bigger fish disappeared? Not had a fish of over 3/4lb for a few years now.
