Last year the numbers were well down on previous years around 65 anglers last year as opossed to around a 100 in 2010! A large price increase and the recession was thought to be the reason.
Yes you are right that there were 4 venues originaly but all trialists were asked to fill in a questionaire regarding venues and the majority felt that llys y fran was to small at only 212 acres when a succesfull trialist would be asked to fish an international on waters maybee 10 times bigger, also concerns over the saftey of the boats was an issue but i understand that some new boats have now been purchassed.
So Llandegfyedd has 2 trials now meaning 2 in the south and 2 in the north.
Hope to see you and some new faces at the trials this year.
