About Seiont, Gwyrfai and Llyfni Fishing Society, River Llyfni
The Seiont, Gwyrfai and Llyfni Fishing Society holds the whole of the Afon Llyfni, about 5.5 miles from Llyn Nantlle to the estuary at Pontllyfni. The Llyfni is a small river in North Wales that arises as Nant Drws y Coed between Mynydd Mawr and Mynydd Drws-y-Coed, just west of Snowdon. The main river forms at the outlet of Llyn Nantlle Uchaf, flows past the great slate workings of Nantlle, picking up drainage from the very deep flooded quarries, and passes south of Talysarn and Penygroes.
The society calls it one of the premier sea trout rivers of Wales. On its own website it says large fish enter the river from late March, that the stretch from the village road bridge down to the sea is fished only after 31 May because of national byelaws, that there is good sewin and salmon fishing on the whole river from early June, and that night fishing during July is very popular. A ticket for this section also lets you fish any of the Seiont, Gwyrfai and Llyfni Fishing Society beats on the Passport; maps for all are provided on booking. Floats and maggots are prohibited, and so is prawn fishing. It is booked through the Fishing Passport.
