Latest Report to Trout & Salmon Magazine

The river has been very low this month and not many salmon have come in yet, however, there have been a few caught. Andrew Jenkins has had two up to 6lb one on the fly and one on rapala; Adrian Batty has had two up to 9lb and Carl Lowndes and Ernie Jones have had one apiece.

Recent Catch Reports

It has been a good season so far for the fly at night with little rain (apart from the odd wet spell) conditions have been great for night fishing and the sea trout are being caught through out our whole river.

A cracking sewin from the Gorgon Flats!

Clive Alabaster has written in through the website to tell about a recent catch:

Had to write to tell you of my success on the night of 17/18th June. I caught a 4lb 8oz sewin on fly from the flats below the Gorgan pool. It took a large size 6 teal, blue and silver (with extra herl in the wing) pattern just around mid-night. I reckon I hooked it on the Thursday but it was 10 minutes into Friday before I got it on the bank. It was a hen fish in excellent condition.

I live outside the area although I grew up on the river near Wolfscastle and have fished the Cleddau since I was knee-high. I was back for a few days fishing and was on the river three consecutive nights. Anyway, I got lucky on the second of these nights. I'm still on a high and can't wait for my next visit (mid-July).

All the best,

Clive

PRT Seek Volunteers

Pembrokeshire Rivers Trust are looking for volunteers to undertake survey work on the tributaries feeding into the Western Cleddau.

All necessary training and equipment will be provided.

 

Bunkers Hill Walk-Through

The Committee would like to inform club members that they are now able to walk from St Catherine's Bridge to Treffgarne using the walk through known as Bunker's Hill. The committee urges members not to abuse this facility as it has taken a long time to obtain it, and it would be a shame to lose it.

 

Click here for a gallery of the working party making the walk-through accessible to anglers.

 

Anyone reported fishing this stretch will be punished by the possibilty of loosing their permit on club waters.
