About River Bran, Llandovery

Llandovery Angling Association offers wild brown trout fishing on the River Bran at Llandovery. It describes the Bran and the Gwydderig as spate streams where even a small rise in level can tempt the resident trout out to feed, and where light tackle is the order of the day. The banks mix tree cover, where a small spinner flicked under the overhanging branches works best, with open areas ideal for stalking with a short fly rod and light line.
