Draining from the Grywne Fawr reservoir in the heart in the Black Mountains, this river is amongst the finest Usk tributary fishing. This stretch was coppiced by the Foundation in 2005 so, together with the comparatively easy wading, will provide enjoyable fly fishing for those seeking wild trout in a beautiful setting.
