The Three Salmons

Fly Fishing Fishing Breaks In Wales

Fishing breaks based at the Three Salmons in Usk will be enjoyed for the variety of fishing available on your doorstep. We have quality, stocked fisheries open year round, producing excellent trout fishing. The River Usk is 200 metres from the hotel and Brown trout day permits are just £14.00 per day and are bought locally. We are able to offer a guiding and tuition service with sufficient notice.

For a similar price, why not try Llandegfedd Reservoir 01291 673722, a 425 acre rainbow trout water only 10 minutes away by car, where boats are also available for hire. On his first visit, Steve Boyle, the hotel proprietor, took 3 Rainbows to 4lb. This water is sometimes opened up for pike fishing and Gareth Edwards took a fish of over 45lbs in the nineties.

For information on all local conditions and fishing options, permits, flies etc. contact Sweet's Fishing Tackle on 01291 672552. All you need on your fishing break is close at hand.

Trout Fishing Holidays to South Wales

Our favourite trout fishery is Big Well just outside Monmouth & only 20 minutes away by car. The site has a new clubhouse, with tea and coffee free to all anglers. They sell a range of snacks [great egg and bacon sandwiches] and all the kit you need for a day's fishing. There is a novice pool as well as three other pools.

Another fishery within 20 minutes of the hotel is Cwm Hedd fishery which has several trout lakes in the complex. There are novice facilities and several disabled access platforms. Fish range up to 15lb and are regularly stocked.

We can offer the opportunity to fish for salmon either on the Usk or the Wye, dependent on time of year and availability. We have access to the Bigsweir stretch of the Wye near Monmouth and a pair of rods costs around £100 for the day. For information on the river Wye visit River Wye Gillies Association for news and the latest catches and conditions.
