Catch Records
2010 Season - 24 Aug. A 15lbs salmon landed, and returned, from the College Pool this morning. Nice few sewin coming out the last few days and fish seem to be throughout the beats and sewin being caught regularly, including a number of double figure fish. The total is around 300 sewin which is encouraging. Abercothi has had similar numbers too. The third night time sewin fishing course run by Jamie Harries and Illtyd Griffiths has just finished and was very successful again. For the double hander salmon course and other courses see fishing tuition link on home page on website or ring Jamie. 2009 Season - Well over 400 sewin landed and 50 salmon at Golden Grove. This includes twenty sewin of ten pounds or more. Around two thirds released.
