Glanyrafon, Golden Grove

The beat rotates on a daily basis, changing at 7am. Getting there by vehicle is generally easy, often along the disused railway, and any walking is generally along grass banks and pasture. Wading is required for night fishing and the river can be quite deep. It is wide open water over a shingle base with the occasional larger rock and mud bank, and at summer levels one can usually wade across at selected places.

It is fly fishing only, night fishing is permitted and dogs are allowed if kept under control. Anglers must contact the ghillie at least 24 hours before they arrive; the ghillie’s details are issued with the booking confirmation. Up to five tickets are sold a day, and a 24 hour ticket costs £100. It is booked through the Fishing Passport.
