Just north of the spa town of Llanwrtyd Wells is the 2½ miles + of single and double bank fishing that comprises the Upper Irfon Beat. Flowing through one of the most picturesque valleys in the upper Wye system, this is a noticeably improving wild trout fishery with grayling now starting to appear in this part of the river.
There was an outbreak of crayfish plague in the lower Irfon in July 2024. Visiting anglers MUST ensure against cross contamination by approved check/dry/disinfection procedures, and importantly waders, nets and tackle should be sprayed with Virkon Aquatic Broad Spectrum Virucidal Disinfectant before and after fishing.
Please note that two local accommodation providers reserve the right to fish a house rod. However, this is only very rarely taken up.
Ideally fished with a 7 to 8ft, 2 to 5wt rod.
