Fished at quakers yard bridge area on the 11/05/17 water leval very low brigh sunshine no fish rising of any size in that area. Fished at aberfan foot bridge on the 12/05/17 got there 10am fish of good size riszing there my be 6 to10in but did not have the to catch any but well worth the trip, will fish hear when i can.

It's a great river but hard on my legs :) Level of water was lower then a month ago. Fish seems to feed for a short periods then they tend to take several hours break. Method spin. Caught and landed one 40+ (C&R) many came off right away.

Ps I really like this online Fishing Passport service.

It was a lovely stretch of river but it was a shame that the river was really dirty; there were plastics, empty cans and other litters everywhere. After an hour of fishing I packed up.

WUF Note: With regard to the litter, Merthyr Tydfil Angling Association work very hard in removing it from their stretch of the Taff. Unfortunately, it is a curse on this and many other urban rivers across the UK but please be assured efforts will continue to clean them up.
