Yet another season draws to a close. I hope you all enjoyed your time on the river this season, even though the poor conditions we have had this year .

Please note that our waters closes for all species at midnight tonight. There is no winter fishing on our water whatsoever. I hope you all had a great season and hopefully see you on the river bank next year.
Don't forget to send your catch returns in 👍

🎣 Pontardulais Angling Association – Season Reminder 🎣

Just a reminder to all members that the non-migratory fishing season ended on 30 September.

For those still hoping to catch a sewin, please remember that catch-and-release fishing applies from 1 September. Worm fishing is permitted until 7 October; after that, only fly fishing and spinning will be allowed until the final closing day on 17 October.

As a committee, we would once again like to thank all our members for their continued support of Pontardulais Angling Association. It has been a difficult season, with very little water for much of the year, making fishing conditions extremely challenging. Despite this, we greatly appreciate everyone who has continued to support the club and make the most of the opportunities whenever conditions allowed.

Hopefully, the river will finish the season on a high. Good luck to everyone for the remaining days, and tight lines! 🎣

The water temperature in the River Loughor and its estuary is currently hovering around 20° C (68° F). This is relatively warm for Welsh coastal and river waters, so if you are planning to fish, you should be mindful that local regulations often prohibit salmon fishing when water temperatures exceed 20 degrees.

River Sewin Report
After many nights with little or no success, things are finally starting to happen on the river.
Lino Ch***pa has done it again, successfully landing two cracking sewin this week. The first fish weighed around 3lb, with the second tipping the scales at close to 4lb. It's fantastic to see the silver tourists finally arriving.
Both fish were taken during the hours of darkness on a floating line, using a top-secret fly tied by the ever-reliable Lyn Williams. Whatever's on that hook, it's certainly doing the business!
July is traditionally one of the best months of the season for sewin. The main runs are now pushing into the river system, and the shoalies are becoming increasingly active. If conditions remain favourable, the next few weeks should provide some excellent sport.
Congratulations to Lino on another fine brace, and best of luck to everyone venturing out over the coming nights. Hopefully, this is just the start of another memorable sewin season.
Tight lines

Zac enjoyed a fantastic afternoon on the dry fly, landing an impressive 4lb brown trout from Pontardulais Angling waters. The beautifully marked fish gave a memorable fight and is another outstanding catch for the club this season. Remarkably, this is now the third monster brown trout to be caught on Pontardulais Angling waters this year, highlighting the excellent quality of fishing on offer. A brilliant achievement and a day to remember — well done, Zac!

Craig Treharne enjoyed an unbelievable day’s fishing on Friday 1st May. It was only his third outing of the year, and remarkably, he had not fished the river for over 30 years.
With the river running low and clear at 0.7 on the Tir y Dail gauge, Craig used a team of two Mediflies on his 9ft #5 rod and managed to hook and land this monster brown trout measuring an impressive 25 inches from our Tynycerrig stretch.
Craig was absolutely delighted and thrilled with the fish, once again proving the incredible quality of trout this river continues to produce.
Well done, Craig — certainly a fish to remember 👍
