About Llynfi Talgarth

Llynfi Talgarth is about a mile of mixed double and single bank on the River Llynfi near Talgarth, and it now takes in a short section below the bridge by Bronllys Castle. The river here is about the size of the Llynfi Dulas, the tributary that joins from the north towards the lower end of the beat, and for the most part it is true small stream fishing, although the junction pool between the two is quite sizable. The Passport suggests a seven to eight foot rod rated 3 weight.
