About the River Cothi
The River Cothi, Afon Cothi in Welsh, is the largest tributary of the River Towy and lies wholly in Carmarthenshire. It rises at Blaen Cothi, in the north of the county above Pumsaint, and flows south east before turning south west past Cwrt y cadno, Pumsaint, Abergorlech and Pont ar Gothi. It joins the Towy west of the village of Llanarthney.
The Cothi is noted for its trout and its sea trout, known locally as sewin, and for its scenery. The Towy sea trout enter the river each spring and early summer to breed in its tributaries.
Brown trout and sea trout are the fish to expect here.
