Very hot day difficult for me didn't know the ropes but far better idea this last visit will visit again I think cloud cover is a Bonus

First time we'd fished Llyn Bugeilyn for about 7 years, and it didn't disappoint. Fished from about 10am to 6pm and lost count of the number of fish caught, well in excess of 20 fish each. Black flies fished near the surface doing the trick, with some big takes and plenty of good size fish for an upland lake.

As mentioned in a previous report the track to the lake has been improved since our last visit.

WARNING - Print off the the Map and Directions or write down the gate padlock code prior to visiting. On arrival the gate was closed with no padlock. When we left the padlock was on the gate. Fortunately I had the foresight to write down the padlock code and when I checked my emails I was unable to view the attachments with the code on due to no phone service in the area.

Perfect conditions in the morning with cloud cover and a light breeze. Plenty of action on a half hog hopper either on the surface or pulled under and quite a few on a black and peacock spider on the dropper.
Bit of rain at lunch time then sun in the afternoon put the fish down.

Cold and damp relative to recent weather. North wind and little obvious surface action except for a short period in the early afternoon. Small black flies worked best. Good place to be even in bad weather.--Track much improved.

Great to be back here after not being able to last year, had 19 lovely conditioned Brown Trout between 2 of us. The day was a bit hot & sunny, but with a brisk breeze, & then rain later. Fish caught on a selection of wets, & a few n the usual small dries, Great day & hope to be back soon, the road down is much improved to which is a bonus.

Having been washed off the Wye we opted for something fishable. This is a remote and stunning place to fish. Being so high and so exposed we were beaten up by a cold wind all day bit managed 5 pristine wbt all about 8 inches. In fact, so similar we could have caught the same trout 5 times! All fish taken on a black gold head and bibio and returned safely.

Unfishable conditions!!! 65 mph winds/ temperature down to 6 degrees!!
Sleet showers and constant torrential rain . Would be good if we could be given a credit for another day! We travelled round trip of 200 miles and went to the lake but couldn't stand up!!! The joys of being at 1700 feet! In 60 years fishing here never seen such impossible conditions.
