Fishing near Rhondda, Wales

Rhondda sits in the South Wales valleys of Rhondda Cynon Taf, a county shaped by steep hillsides and fast-running rivers. The Afon Rhondda runs through the heart of the area and is the centrepiece of local fishing, with the wider county also drawing anglers to reservoirs, country park fisheries and stretches of the River Taff. Wild brown trout and the occasional late-season salmon define the river fishing here, while still-water venues provide accessible sport for trout and coarse anglers alike.
