About Llyn Bodgynydd
Llyn Bodgynydd is a wild upland lake above Trefriw in the Gwydir Forest, part of an SSSI, and the club fishes it for wild brown trout. Most of the shore is difficult to reach on foot, so the club calls it adventurous fishing in a stunning location. Some very large brown trout are seen rising on a summer evening, though they can be hard to tempt.
Fly, worm and spinner are all allowed, with worm and minnow the only baits. The limit is two fish, and once it is reached you carry on catch and release, with bubble and fly, spinning or fly only. The club asks you to take rubbish home, close gates and light no fires, barbecues or camping. A day ticket for 2026 is £15 for anglers aged 10 and over, valid on the date booked and for this lake only, and none are sold from 1 September. The club’s website has a map for parking. The position shown is approximate.
