The trout fishing is excellent with a good variety of water including dry fly flats, glides and pocket water. There are two excellent named salmon pools on the lower stretch – Ellis and Nicholls.

The wading is moderately difficult and chest waders are required to fully cover the water. Stud/felt soles are necessary. Please note that there is a walk of 300 yards from the parking point to the lower section.

From Tuesdays to Fridays this water is merged with a nearby beat to make the more substantial Glanusk Tymawr and Canal & Rivers Trust fishery.
