Aberystwyth Angling Association: Llyn Blaenmelindwr

Llyn Blaenmelindwr is a 12 acre llyn is right on the edge of a narrow road, giving easy access to a good part of the bank. The rest of the llyn is fairly boggy and care needs to be taken when working round it. It can get weedy in summer especially on the far bank.

Wild fish are present here, as well as some stocked browns. Some of the wild fish can exceed 1lb and are good quality. Dry fly is often successful here.

It is of interest to note that Blaenmelindwr was once home to a breeding population of American brook trout up until the 1990’s.
