R2 - The Lower Clochfaen

The Lower ClochfaenVouchers - Adults 4/ Under 17s 2.
Wading difficulty: 1

The lower beat comprises just under two miles of double and single bank fishing and is itself split into two sections. Parts of the lower section of this beat flow over bedrock so the wading here can be tricky but the pocket water makes for some interesting fishing.

The Clochfaen also offers excellent B&B accommodation and self catering accommodation very close to the fishing. Contact 01686 440 687 or see www.theclochfaen.com
