Colin Miller Memorial Competition

Carwin Williams from Llanelli wins the 2009 Colin Miller Memorial Competition.
The Colin Miller Memorial Competition was held for its fourth occasion on the weekend raising money for a worthy cause. With a good turn out and the weather favourable the fishing was excellent with a total of 79 trout being caught.
Most of the fishing was from the surface with the trout feeding on emerging buzzers throughout the day.
Carwin fishing a diawl bach and buzzers caught a total of 14 Rainbows and 1 Brown to win the competition convincingly, second place was Craig Williams catching 8 Rainbows and one Brown and third place went Peter Furnell again catching 9 Rainbows missing out on second place by 8oz.

The Fishery would like to pass on its thanks to all those involved on the weekend and to Tight Lines Tackle Shop in Ammanford for providing the prizes.

Fishing report - April 2009

The fishing is still excellent with the majority of fish still being caught in the top foot of water.
Crystal Clear water and prolific hatches of buzzers all week, Hugh Weir excelled in these conditions using olive and black shipmans buzzers, in two day’s he caught a total of 34 fish including some superb Brown trout to 5 1/2lb all the fish fighting extremely hard.
Still no sign of the impending first hatches of olives and up wing’s, but there have been reports of fish tailing in the shallow bay’s, this is a sure sign that the nymph’s are starting to get active.
Top flys, Olive and black shipmans, Diawl bach, Crunchers, CDC’s.
