Introduction

Llyn y Gro is situated near to the village of Sarnau on the A494, some 3-4 miles north of the picturesque Welsh market town of Bala in the Snowdonia National Park.

Llyn y Gro is the epitomy of scenic, peaceful and enjoyable coarse fishing. The lakes are lined with reeds/rushes as well as a few willow trees; the banks are flat and easy (except for the north bank, which is out of bounds) and there are a few “patches” of water weed, lily pads as well as 5 floating islands and 2 "bank" islands on lake 1 that make interesting features.
