Hi Im quite new to fly fishing so i had a walk around Pen y Fan pond today. i was thinking of getting a day ticket and giving it a go but I have a few questions you may be able to help me with.
I will be wading out but at the moment i cant get access to my 10 foot rod (my son in Cardiff has it) so would i be wasting my time with my 6ft rod?
next is it ok to access the water from any bank or are some areas out of bounds or dangerous.
and finally are there and hot spots or tips i can get to improve my chances .
many thanks in advance
Nic
Thanks John. I actually joined the club a few years ago but was unable to take advantage of my membership as i was taken seriously ill. But i'm back now and will let you know how i get on. hopefully i will have a good day on Pen Y Fan pond and re join. Nic
Hi Nic
I have been fly fishing for 30 years but I have only just joined islwynanglers. Because of covid I have not yet fished pen y fan so I cant offer good advice. I would think that a 6ft rod would be ok unless you are you are lucky ( or not ) to hook a monster which would give the feeling of a very hard fight. Let me know how you get on.
Regards
John
