Graham 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2004 Hi WelshTyer This is an awsome website forum and I'm glad you found it. BTW...My family is originally from north "Wales and I took my 11 year old son there for 10 days last year. I wished I had a fly rod with me especialy in Snowdonia where I could see trout rising in the river outside my hotel room.

Sippy 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2004 Welcome! My Mom was born in England and grew up in Aberdyffi, Wales while her father was stationed there in the Navy during WWII. I have been there 4 times and it is one of my favorite places in the world. I can't wait to travel there again some day with my husband and kids. We will be sure to incorporate some fishing! Enjoy the site! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
