About Us
With a spectacular backdrop of Snowdonia and a hint of the nearby sea-shore on the breeze, the 80 acre natural stillwater fishery of Llyn Coron is a unique lowland location.
Visitors are very welcome on an extremely competitive day permit rate for barbless catch and release only.
Try a dry fly on the top dropper as evening falls and the light drops. we enjoy some fabulous evening rises in these areas.
One of the best areas of the lake, year round, is fishing down the North East bank round past Cormorant Rock into Gwna Bay.
Prevailing winds push food sources across to this shore and there are always fish patrolling the margins, easily coverable by swinging a team of wet flies round close to the bottom during the day.
Right through the high summer growing season these areas are clear of bankside growth. making access and casting easy.

Fishery Notes
IMPORTANT:
FLY FISHING ONLY: CATCH & RELEASE ONLY ON BARBLESS HOOKS.
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE INFORMATION BELOW IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE FISHERY. IF POSSIBLE, WE WOULD ALSO RECOMMEND YOU VISIT THE WATER BEFORE PURCHASING A TICKET IF UNSURE HAVING READ OVER THIS INFORMATION.
The season runs from 21st March until 17th October. Fishing is from dawn to dusk. Day ticket holders may leave and return as many times as they wish during the daylight hours of the given date.
Anglers must be in possession of the appropriate rod licence.
We do not have any boats for hire, all craft moored at the lake are owned privately by season rod holders. Visitors may bring float tubes, kayaks etc and they are used at THE USER’S OWN RISK.
Fishing Information:
We are just a small club, and the water is not run like a commercial stocked fishery. The location is a wild lake, with wild fish, and anglers should approach it accordingly.
The lake is situated in an SSSI and SAC, so the banks are not maintained for access to the water, but are allowed to grow on in order to encourage wildlife. This means that it can be a challenge to reach the water through the bank-side vegetation from May to September. Please bear this in mind particularly if you have any mobility issues.
Also wading is often necessary to cover fish as the water is shallow close to the banks.
The easiest access and fishing is on the North and East banks. They are accessed along the lane from the car park for about 300m until you come to a farm track on the left. A few metres past this lane there is public footpath access which leads you towards the lake.
The fishing along this bank, over the Afon Ffraw bridge and down the East shore and round past Cormorant Rock to Gwna Bay has much easier access. The other shore is very difficult to access when summer growth is in full swing.
