      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

      Question 
      after fishing Stillwaters for a few years I had a go on the river for a day last season . I fished the Ebbw at junction 28 and caught my first ever wild brown . today I’ve been into Green’s and purchased my permit for the season . So here’s my question , could somebody compile a list of the best access points to the river for me please ? thanks in advance

      I fished the pond Thursday gone after a few months not fishing it. I had 2 hours spare in the morning so I headed to penyfan I always enjoy the fishing this time of year and more often than not Il fish the same method that's served me well over the years in the winter. I fished the point and was surprised to hook a fish first cast and first 3 pulls after cast!! Brilliant. I was rewarded again after the 3rd cast and managed to land another 4 fish within the next hour. Using a 7# slow inter 1.5ips and a 10ft leader, switching between a Natural grey and Black zonker around 2.5" long the fish responded well to them being fished slow and steady. My method at that location is to cast and count down 18 to 20 seconds a give 3 long slow pulls at first, I found 90% of the fish were being hooked at that point. I think I was landing my flies into a shoal around 30 yards out. Looking forward to the next time! I wont be waiting as long as last time.
