No luck this time but a beautiful river. Will be back

Fished Rhosrydd, in the evening, cloud and sun, wind from the south, good hatch of sedges in the margins but no rises in nearly three hours, fished with wet fly and weighted nymph. Nothing, saw one fish pottering past me in the shallows. No takes. Looks like a good fishery to take a boat out with a pal and make a day of it, if conditions provide, they can also help open the three gates on the way there!

Unfortunately caught no fish.
Issues:
1. Two of the best pools on river Rheidol were made useless because families had picnic there and many children were playing in the river and making noise. If the spots are open to public for picnic then it's not a fishing spot managed by an fishing club for a fee! It's pity the pools were perfect for fishing.
2. We went to the w3w address of Cwm Rheidol Reservoir, mentioned in the lakes map downloaded from AAA website, but there was no access to the lake, and there was a sign saying fishing is not permitted. We then tried to find the power station car park, as mentioned in the river maps of AAA for the spot M on the map, could not find it. We wasted a lot of time to find out where the AAA fishing spots on Rheidol Reservoir are , with no luck. So AAA provides wrong information to the people buy day tickets. Not happy at all for the tickets we bought and the service and information we received

Fishing Passport Note : We’d hope that each anglers visit would be peaceful but in reality this is not always going to be the case. I’m afraid that anglers will usually encounter other river users, particularly on warm summer weekends. There is 16 miles of the Rheidol to fish.

We are not aware of any 'Fishing is not permitted' signs.

Fishery maps can be downloaded from your Order Confirmation email if booking through the Fishing Passport website but we will give your feedback to AAA on the information that they provide directly from their website.

Lovely lake and conditions at Llyn Frongoch. 1st fish of the evening was a Rudd, caught on small CDC dry fly.
2 rainbows hooked on plain goldhead black tadpole lure, fished slow. Larger one taken, weight estimate 3lbs. Smaller escaped at net side. 1 last rainbow caught and released, late evening on dry emerger pattern.

Many thanks
