About Eisteddfa Trout Lake
The Trout Lake is the smaller of Eisteddfa Fishery’s two trout lakes, where both fly and bait fishing are permitted. The fishery describes it as ideal for families and beginners: there is no need to book, just turn up and pay on the day.
The lake is regularly stocked with pan sized rainbow trout of 1 to 1½lb. Tickets are sold by the bag, from two fish to six, and every trout caught must be taken. Bait fishing with maggots or worms is suggested for beginners, and the shop hires tackle and sells bait. Spinning and power bait are not permitted. The fishery’s price list for the Trout Lake is on its rules and prices page. The position shown is approximate.

Rules and policies
Fishing rules for Eisteddfa Trout Lake
All trout caught must be taken, and no bait fished trout may be returned to the water. Tickets are by the bag, and extra fish are charged for and tickets cannot be upgraded. Bait fishermen must keep all the fish they catch and stop fishing once the bag limit is reached or buy a new ticket. Spinning is not permitted. Power bait is not permitted. No loose feeding: bait on the hook only. Taking more fish than you have paid for is theft and the fishery prosecutes. No fires, radios or disposable barbecues. Well behaved dogs are welcome with their owners and must be kept near you on the peg. A rod licence is needed for anyone aged 16 or over, and a free junior licence for ages 13 to 16.
