A Fishing experience in the Heart of Snowdonia

About the Society

Since its formation as far back as 1908, the Society has grown to be one of - if not the - largest proprietors of diverse fishing rights without membership restrictions in the U.K. Situated in the heart of Snowdonia with extensive rights located within the boundaries of the National Park, fishing on our 40 miles or so of prime Salmon, Seatrout and Brown Trout rivers and six lakes can be enjoyed in unrivalled surroundings.

Not only are the fishing opportunities unrivalled, so too are the area’s other attractions which are there to be savoured by non-fishing members of the family. These range from miles of golden sand to the medieval splendour of Caernarfon Castle or the imposing massif of Snowdon, the highest peak in England and Wales. The mountain’s unique rack-and-pinion railway operates from its terminus at Llanberis.

If this journey to the mountain’s peak is undertaken, one can sample the same view as that which the great Victorian traveller, George Borrow, experienced in 1854, on which he commented “What filled us with most delight and admiration were numerous lakes and rivers which, like sheets of ice or polished silver, lay reflecting the rays of the sun in the deep valleys at my feet”. It is these rivers and lakes which form the waters that you will be fishing and which flow over some of the oldest rocks in the world - the Alps and the Himalayas are mere upstarts compared to these.
