	Fishing in Kite Country - Fishing - River Towy
		The Towy is one of Europe's finest sea trout fisheries and very large fish are regularly caught in the early part of the season, although these might not reach the upper stretches in Kite Country until June or July.
		The upper reaches of the river are the most beautiful, although the fishing requires considerable skill and it can be dangerous to wade in some of the deep, rocky pools or to fish alone without adequate protection.
		This is a very beautiful area beside the Towy and was historically most significant as being the location, at the turn of the century, of the last breeding pair of Red Kites left in the country.

		Recently (February 1998) the Main River Towy from Llandovery to the confluence with the River Taf and Pembrey coast Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) Carmarthen Bay was designated a SSSI for its assemblage of flora and fauna.
		The source of the River Towy rises at an altitude of 425m AOD in the Cambrian Mountains, falling steeply for the first 17 km before reaching Llyn Brianne reservoir.
		The flow of the main River Towy downstream from Llyn Brianne is regulated, with releases from the reservoir timed to coincide with the major abstraction at Nantgaredig, providing water resources to much of South Wales.

	Conwy Richards - Introduction and Early History of Coracles and Coracle Makers
		Before the industrial revolution and rivers used as sewers Britain had many salmon rivers including the Thames a river that is now attracting salmon because of many years spent on a clean up.
		Today coracle fishing is still practiced on three rivers in Wales, the Towy,Taf and Teifi.
		In the year 1360 in the rule of Edward the third it was written by Froissart about the invasion army from England to France carrying a baggage train of more than six thousand carts in which small boats of boiled leather were crewed by three men who rowed and fished.

	cars - River Tywi
		The Llyn Brianne Reservoir was formed here in 1972 by damming a section of the river in order to store winter rain so that it could be released into the river during dry periods.
		The purpose behind this construction was to support the new abstraction at Nant Garedig that was destined to supply a large swathe of south Wales with drinking water.
		The flow in the River Twyi would have been unable to sustain such an abstraction were it not for the release of water from the upland reservoir.

		As for salmon, these magnificent fish usually return to the river where they were born, it is believed that they can sense or smell the river, to the extent that they spawn within yards of their birthplace.
		River Towy sea trout may have fewer spots than sea trout caught in the Rivers Wnion and Artro.
		Rather than approach the river to hunt for a feeding fish it is better to assume that they are not.

	Edwinsford Fishery - sea trout fishing in Wales on River Cothi (Towy)
		Although a spate river the Cothi holds up remarkably well after a flood with sustained fishing possible for 2 weeks if the ground is not too dry.
		Here the river flows through a wide valley and is generally fished from the north bank with access from the road which follows the south bank or from a track across the fields.
		As the river is close to good accommodation, anglers can be independent if the rest of the family want to go sight seeing, go to the coast or on expeditions.

	Towy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		" River Towy" is the logical English-language rendering of " Afon Tywi" - as " River Wye " is English for "Afon Gwy", and "Afon Wysg", Welsh for "River Usk".
		To call the man-made structure that stems the main flow of the rivers Towy and Camddwr and the resulting potable water reservoir after smelly water, a hand-mill or " Brian ", seems somewhat lacking in intellect.
		The naming of Towy's man-made lake as " Llyn Brianne" is an aberration that surely requires correction to Llyn Tywi or Towy Reservoir.
