Lower Section
Lingo Pool
Access from the car park at the Tyn y Wern Hotel. Please park neatly on the lower section. A very good pool for spinning or bait fishing. This pool is mentioned in George Borrow’s book ‘Wild Wales’. He refers to it as ‘a very deep pool, one of the deepest on the Welsh Dee. Named after Catherine Lingo a young girl who when collecting sticks fell into the pool from a high bank above and was drowned.’ This is one of the best pools on the club waters for fishing spinner or bait. Any bait or spinner should be fished very deep. The run from the Wrexham road side is very good to fish with a fly to about half way down the pool.
Rock House Pool
A deep slow salmon pool good for spinning or bait fishing. Access from the tip pool by walking down stream
Tip Pool
Good salmon pool with a fast run into it. Fishes well with the fly or spinner off the A5 side. The run out of the pool goes into a rocky ledge which will fish bait well. From the top of the Tip pool down to the top of Lingo pool fishes well for trout and grayling with fly or worm. Access to the tip is gained through the council playing area at Coed Afon. Park at the bottom of Birch hill on the A5. The opposite bank to the Tip pool fishes with spinner or bait. Access is very difficult down a steep bank from the Woodlands Hotel car park.
Tip pool to Town weir
Good trout and grayling fishing with fly or worm. Access is gained by way of walking up from the Tip pool. Good fishing at Bishops Walk on the Wrexham roadside up to the town bridge
Town bridge to wild pheasant
From the A5 side this is mostly trout and grayling water except for top rock and the deep channels in the park which are good for salmon by all methods. Access along promenade walk from Llangollen bridge or at park avenue housing estate. From the opposite bank from the railway station to just past the Jenny Jones island, there is good trout and grayling fishing by way of fly or worm. There are also two good salmon runs just above the Jenny Jones tunnel access.
