About Afon Morda

The Afon Morda is a 27.9km river in Wales that offers mixed coarse and game fishing opportunities across its length. However, both water quality and fish populations are currently classified as poor, which may limit success rates and restrict catch quality. Anglers should check local Environment Agency guidance and obtain appropriate permits before fishing, as conditions may be recovering or subject to ongoing management restrictions.

Anglers should note the close season on Afon Morda: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Club membership or day ticket access is required in addition to your EA rod licence on most stretches.
