	information on the mawddach hatchery

		The first Mawddach sea trout fry to hatch and consequently feed were transferred outside on the 24th of the month (see photo’s).

	Mawddach Valley Fishing
		The Mawddach rises to the north of the Rhobell Fawr Mountain and flows through Ganllwyd, Llanelltyd and Penmaenpool and on through its long estuary to the sea at Barmouth.
		On the Mawddach, as with most other rivers in Gwynedd, there is a marked contrast between the upper reaches - steep and rocky, requiring great care in wet weather - and the gentler lower reaches, some of them quite short, where the course meanders through meadows or woodland.
		The Mawddach's largest tributary is the Wnion, a very fine sea trout river, while the smaller River Eden is also a valuable game fishery.

	River Mawddach - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The River Mawddach (in Welsh, Afon Mawddach) is a river in North Wales which has its source in a wide area SH820300 north of Ddualt in Snowdonia.
		Gold mining and subsequently gold panning have had major impacts but forestry, the preparation of animal skins, the storage of old munitions and the use of hill-sides as artillery ranges have all added to the legacy of pollution.
		The southern bank of the Mawddach estuary, along which used to run a section of the GWR branch line from Ruabon to Barmouth, has now been designated the Mawddach Trail, an 8 mile cycle path running from Dolgellau to Morfa Mawddach, at the south side of the Barmouth railway bridge.

	Fishing Wales
		For some time the upper reaches of the River Mawddach have suffered from the impact of acid rain and increased metal concentrations.
		It is hoped that this will improve the water quality sufficiently to allow the upper reaches of the Mawddach to support diverse aquatic life and increase the numbers of fish.
		After prolonged exposure to these conditions some of the tributaries of the Mawddach have been unable to support a diverse range of aquatic life.

	mawddach permaculture group shredder
		The Mawddach Permaculture Group met regularly to discuss various aspects of the project such as a suitable site, use of the machine, trained operators, processing of shredded material, possible problem plants such as Japanese Knotweed, an expansion of the local group and the use of the shredder generally.
		Local people will be able to bring their own material for shredding by prior agreement and similarly, if the Council find they have quantities of green waste for the bulky refuse collection that would normally go to the landfill site, they will, by prior agreement, be able to divert that waste to the nearest shredder.
		The Mawddach Permaculture Group feel there is a huge potential in our area for the Forest Cycle and that the partnership with Cyngor Dosbarth Meirionydd presents an opportunity to develop practical solutions to the environmental, economic and social challenges that we face.
