The River Dovey, known in Welsh as the Afon Dyfi, is widely regarded as one of the finest sea trout rivers in the United Kingdom. Flowing through the heart of mid-Wales before forming the natural boundary between the counties of Gwynedd and Ceredigion as it broadens into the Dyfi Estuary, this river offers a truly exceptional angling experience in a stunning landscape. With consistent annual catches placing it among the top-producing sea trout rivers in Wales, the Dovey draws visiting anglers from across the country who come to test their skills against its wild, hard-fighting fish. The New Dovey Fishery Association manages approximately 15 miles of the river, making it one of the more accessible and well-organized fisheries in the region.
