About the fishery

The two lakes at Taff Bargoed Park in Trelewis form a trout fishery managed by Taff Bargoed Angling Association. Membership and an operator-linked day-ticket booking route are available. Methods differ between upper and lower lakes, and canoeing events can restrict angling. Current club and booking pages disagree on dogs, so visitors need clarification before bringing one.
