Llyn Crud y Gwynt is the members’ trout lake of Rhyl and St Asaph Angling Association, a two acre spring fed reservoir that the association leases near Denbigh. It is stocked with rainbow, brown and blue trout, and the association describes it as hidden away in a truly peaceful location. The association also holds its introduction to fly fishing days here.
The lake is fly only with barbless hooks, from 8am to sunset. Brown and blue trout are returned. One rainbow trout of 2lb (18 inches) or less may be kept, with a limit of two a week and ten a season, and the first takeable fish must be the one kept, so selective fishing is not allowed.
