About this water

Seiont Gwyrfai and Llyfni Fishing Society offers excellent fishing on Llyn Cwellyn, a large natural lake.

The fishing experience here is exceptional, with free-rising wild brown trout comparable to the best you can find in these islands.

The average size of the trout ranges from 8oz to 1lb.

Cwellyn spans approximately 220 acres and is designated as a Special Area of Conservation. Its considerable depth allows it to sustain one of Wales’s few Arctic char populations.
