1lb brown on a daddy, perfect condition

1 Trout

Very brief trip, fished for 40 mins before called away on family duty and blanked. Points for future fishers to note: a 6 mph forecast Westerly equated to a gale blowing down the lake from the South. If I had time I would have moved from the West shore to the East, being a right handed caster. Local knowledge is key.
Wading was vile. Water levels were so low that many areas were silty soft sand which I do not enjoy.
But don't let these negative comments deter you. This is a superb place to fish for wild brown trout. Some rain over winter and this will be fantastic place to fish next spring.

Wonderful location -- Fish rising further out but not close to the bank.
Caught nothing !
ps Would it be a good idea to consider stocking Talybont again ?

No fish but beautiful surroundings. Water is crystal clear. Mixed weather, sun shone but also had much needed heavy rain in afternoon.

Tough day. The high temperatures have really affected the fishing. Still a pleasure to be out on the water in such lovely surroundings.

I started the day with a wonderful hike along the Four Waterfalls Trail with my wife. The scenery was so breathtaking that we completely lost track of time before heading to Talybont Reservoir, arriving at around 3:20 p.m.
As I have limited experience fishing reservoirs, and with the warm afternoon conditions, I wasn't expecting much. I fished for about an hour and a half but unfortunately didn't catch anything.
Even without a fish, the trip was absolutely worthwhile. The peace, tranquillity, and natural beauty of Wales made for a perfect day. Thank you for a wonderful experience—I look forward to returning again soon.

The Reservoir was very full for the time of year.

Very windy, with limited access for fly fishing but that has to be accepted as part of the re-wilding effort. Fantastic scenery and a great public asset. We met 3 Wales Water personnel and they all stopped and chatted. Good day but no fish.

Arrived later in the morning and weather conditions too calm and clear at times. Mainly fished the top end. Fish mainly rising further out where the breeze was. Nice reservoir.
