Three consecutive days/nights (can include Sundays) Salmon and/or Sea-trout Fishing, each day on a different beat, for two rods on the Golden Grove Estate on the River Towy, Carmarthenshire. (Approx 1½ hours from Severn Bridge). This is some of the prime water on the best sea-trout river in the UK.

The Golden Grove Estate has three beats containing over forty pools extending to over five miles of the River Towy. Generally the sea-trout are fished for with a fly at night (although spinning is permitted in high water). The beats produce some 400 - 500 sea-trout averaging over 3lbs each season, including many into double figures.

Prime sea-trout time is June to August although there is also a good run of salmon, especially in September and October.

A professional guide is available to assist (tips only) so beginners are more than welcome.

Accommodation is not included but there is a very good inn nearby with excellent food, which caters for fishermen. It is also a beautiful area with places to visit (Aberglasney, National Botanic Garden of Wales) etc.

The days are to be agreed with the Donor and to be taken May to October 2015.

PLEASE NOTE: All successful bidders will be notified immediately on completion of the Sale by email. To secure the Lot, payment should be made within 7 days of the notification.
