Is there fishing available in the area?

Yes indeed, Builth Wells Angling controls over two miles of double and single bank fishing on the Wye and a mile of fishing on its tributary, The Irfon.

Combined, these rivers offer a range of water types; from deep rocky pools to gravel flats. There is usually good fishing to be found somewhere on the club's water whatever its flow height.
