Thought I was the only one booked on the reservoir but another angler was fishing the spot I had earmarked? A beginner on stillwater trout fishing and blanked. Lovely location. Why no more stocking? Fly only - very little litter, unlike the Usk reservoir! Any tips? I hope to be back.
WUF Note: The fishing rights at Talybont are held by a local angling club so there will occasionally be club members there. All day tickets are sold via the Passport.

It has been over 20 years since I fished at Talybont but it is still a beautiful place. The wind still comes down the valley at speed. I fished at the top end and had 3 fish and lost a few more. I had 2 on a Bibio and 1 on a Mallard and Claret. Didn't see many rises but had a great day after not fishing there for so long.

The fishing at Talybont Reservoir is hard going. Did manage one small fish about 9 inches long after about five hours effort. Fish caught on a black muddler. Conditions seemed perfect but that was the only fish I touched. Having said that I did see a very big fish (2.5 - 3lbs) cruising the margins which was the highlight of the day. Beautiful surroundings and would visit again.

Very tough day, bright conditions and flat calm. 1 x 1lb brown caught around midday on dry fly. 2 other fish lost and a couple more miss-timed on the strike. Hard fishing but nice weather in a beautiful setting made up for it.
