Tata Open Fly Fishing Competition, 2019 Eglwys Lake

Eglwys Nunydd is a 260-acre lowland reservoir in Margam near Port Talbot, Wales. The reservoir provides water for the nearby steelworks and is a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its fertile environment and diverse birdlife.

Angling at the reservoir is controlled by the Tata Game Angling Association, a friendly and very welcoming club of around 100 members that celebrated its 50th year in 2016. The club welcomes anglers of all abilities and is keen to promote fly fishing to all. Tickets are now available online, from the Fishing Passport.

An open fly fishing competition will be held at Eglwys lake on Sunday 19th May 2019.

Competition registration will be from 8.30 am and competition will be from 9.30 am – 3.30pm.

It will be a “Hidden Pairs “competition for seniors and will also have a separate competition for juniors (up to the age of 18)

There are a good number of prizes including £500 (to be divided up) donated by Tata PLC a free senior season ticket for Eglwys 2020 and also a free season ticket for a Junior.

Airflo/Fishtec have donated a full starter kit for the junior part of the competition and Smyfly have donated two vouchers £30 and £20 to be spent on their web site. We expect many other items to be donated by sponsors as we get closer to the date.
