Fishing Lakes in Merthyr Tydfil

Merthyr Tydfil's four listed waters split fairly evenly between reservoir fishing and river work. Beacons Reservoir, Cantref Reservoir and Pontsticill Reservoir account for three of the entries, giving anglers who prefer stillwater a proper choice within the same town, while the River Taff offers a different day out entirely for those wanting to fish moving water.

That mix of three reservoirs to one river is really the defining feature of this page: it's not a place with a single obvious option, but one where the choice between bank-still and current fishing is made before you've left Merthyr Tydfil itself. Anyone wanting more reservoir or river variety close by could also look at Aberdare, which has its own page of listings.
