What a week we've had at Clywedog with the rains falling the lake is currently 100% full so please take care around the banks.
The fishing has been very good with a slight reversal in fortunes from last week as the boats seem to have enjoyed the better fishing and some very good bags being taken best area has been the cages to yacht club drift and top method has been Di 5 with 2 boobies fished slow, Although visiting anglers Nigel Clark and Steffan Williams enjoyed a good day using midge tip lines again on the cages drift.

But star fish of the week goes to Dougie Vivars with his fantastic Brown Trout of 15lb 2oz Dougie used a floating line and a black tadpole to tempt his fish drifting around Cwm Coch.
