Cwmcelyn Angling Club
Established in 1971, Cwmcelyn Angling Club focuses on providing affordable fishing for the local community.
We are a passionate group of anglers with a real sense of camaraderie. We welcome anglers of all abilities into the club and keenly promote angling to youngsters in our community, believing in the adage “Seatbox before Xbox!”
We are perhaps Wales’ most social club; we meet in the local pub every Monday evening, where we run our ‘Lucky Peg Four Draw’, and host official meetings on the first Monday of every month.
Organised matches take place every other Sunday and we also run evening matches throughout the summer months
