The Honddu is a small Welsh river characterised by fast-flowing runs over gravel and rocky substrates, typical of upland streams in the region. It offers good sport for trout and occasional grayling, with the upper reaches being particularly productive during spring and autumn. Access is generally available along much of the river, though permits from local riparian owners or fishing associations are typically required.
Anglers should note the close season on Honddu: 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.
