I just spotted this item about the salmon restocking of the Taff -
looks encouraging for you lot down there...

and work your way down to the 'audio/video' section...

Two years ago I "entertained" an American friend from ROFF - another
newsgroup- who wanted to have a couple of days fishing in Wales. The
weather was so hot and had been dry for weeks that the rivers were
running very low indeed. We fished the Irfon in Llangammarch Wells but
the levels were so low as to make it nigh on impossible.

The following day my friend went on his own to Merthyr to fish Taf. He
described it "like fishing in a sewer, but the fishing was very good" I
don't wish to offend the Merthyr anglers, I'm just quoting his remarks.

I have since heard good things about the Taf.
