Dolgau is 1 mile of mixed single (left) and double bank upper Wye fishing, a couple of miles south of Rhayader. The beat has several classic salmon pools as well as offering excellent trout fishing opportunities. However, this part of the Wye is especially renowned for its grayling and is a good bet for a specimen fish in the late summer and autumn. The best of the salmon fishing tends to be later in season.

Bank fishing is possible along most of the pools, all of which can be comfortably covered with a single or double handed rod. The fishery is well-maintained and has good access. With a combination of bedrock and gravel, care must be taken when wading as some of the pools are extremely deep. Studded soles are essential.

A very short (35m, 39 yard) walk from the parking spot to the river.

Block Booking is available on this beat. You can book all the tickets available (sometimes at a discounted price). You can only fish up to the maximum daily number of people allowed for that type of fishing.
