The season starts on both Lakes Padarn
and Cwellyn on 3rd March.
Fishing this early is usually from the bank, with catches being made initially
from Padarn.
Favourite areas is the eastern shore, being the lakeside
railway side.
The fish this early are silvery in colour, but are easily
distinguished from the
silvery brown trout which abound in both
lakes.
The charr of course sports a very pronounced forked tail.
