Llyn Cwmystradllyn is truly the location for those who like to fish in wild places. H. M. Gallingham described Cwmystradllyn as a "lake charmingly situated in a green oasis among savage hills."
The reservoir is fished by any method. However, because it's the main water supply for Dwyfor and Eifionydd catchment, there is a strict "no maggot fishing or ground baiting" rule. The worm can be very effective after heavy rainfall fishing by the small feeder streams. On the whole the water is gin-clear and this can be very productive for fly fishing. Flies that usually produce fish are: Hawthorne, Heather, Peter Ross, Dunkeld, Invicta, Haul a Gwynt, Mallard & Claret and the Black Pennell.
It pays to experiment, and the angler who really persevere will be the most successful.
There is also abundant wildlife to look for.
Mae Llyn Cwmstradllyn yn lecyn delfrydol i'r rhai sy'n hoffi pysgota mewn mannau anial. Disgrifiodd H. M. Gallingham unwaith y lle fel "gwerddon hyfryd yng nghanol creigiau creulon."
Caniateir unrhyw fath o bysgota, ond gan mai'r llyn hwyn yw prif gronfa ddwr Dwyfor ac Eifionydd, ni chaniateir pysgota a chynrhon na thrwy fwydo rhwydd.
Mae'r prif genwair yn abwyd effeithio iawn, yn enwedig mewn nentydd bychain ar ol glaw trwm. Ar y cyfan mae'r dwr yma'n "groew Loew" ac yn arbennig o dda ar gyfer pysgota a phryfyn. Y pryfaid gorau, fel arfer, yw: hawthorne, Heather, Peter Ross, Dunkeld, Invicta, Haul a Gwynt, Mallard & Claret a'r Black Pennell. Argymhelli'r arbrofi: y pysgotwr amyneddgar sy'n dal mwyaf o bysgod bob amser.
Mae digonedd o fywyd gwyllt o gwmpas y llyn.
