Blwyddyn Newydd Dda / Happy New Year
'Doedd 2105 ddim yn rhyw flwyddyn ble mae'n bosib edrych yn ol fel un iw chlodfori rhywsut - Mi aeth allan gyda tipyn o siomedigaeth inni oll drwy unwaith eto weld Brwnwr yr Uchel Lys Mr Ustus Hickinbottom yn gwrthod ein cais i Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ail ystyried ei penderfyniad fod llygredd Llyn Padarn ddim i wneud a dirywiad y torgoch. Fel 'rwyn gweld y sefyllfa mae hyn yn rhoi pob safle gwyddonol arbenig (SSSI) mewn perygyl, gan yn ol pob golwg nid yw llywodraeth Cymru wedi mabwysiadu deddfau Ewrop sy'n gwarchod safleoedd or fath.
Mae Fish Legal o'r farn fod y dyfarniad yma gyda oblygiadau pellgyrheaddol tuag at warchod ag amddifyn ein hamgylchedd. Cymaint yw'r pryder mi ofynwyd i'r barnwr am yr hawl i apelio yn erbyn ei benderfyniadau - wrth gwrs gwrthodaodd y cais. Y broses wedyn oedd cyflwyno sail ein apel i'r Llys Apel yn LLundain. Mae hyn wedi ei wneud, felly rhaid disgwyl unwaith eto am sylwadau'r llys.
Fy hun - nid oeddwn wedi fy synnu gyda'r penderfyniad yn dilyn gwrando ar y cyflwyniadau cyfreithiol yn y llys yng Nghaernarfon, gan ein bod ni - fel cymdeithas fechan wedi meiddio herio grym Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru, ei meistri sef Llywodraeth Cymru a cwmni Dwr Cymru/Welsh Water. Cawn weld efallai bydd y llys apel yn fwy agored yn ei meddylfryd.
Nid yw penderfyniadau Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ddim yn mynd i lawr y dda iawn yng nghefn gwlad, oherwydd diffyg mawr y corff yma i wrando a cymryd sylw ar bryderon lleol sy'n ymwneud a'n pysgodfeydd. Mae nifer o gyfrafodydd wedi bod dros y misoedd diwethaff gyda'r bwriad yn ol pob golwg o ddod a deddf i fodolaeth fydd yn gorfodi 'Catch and Release' gyda'r eog ac o bosib y sewin hefyd. Mae gryn ofid yn ein cymunedau gweldig fod y corff yma yn edrych yn debyg ei fod eisaiau atal pyagota'n gyfan gwbwl am y ddau 'sgodyn hyfryd yma. Oes mae dirywiad wedi bod yn nifer yr eog - ond yn anffodus does neb mewn awdurdod yn fodlon cyfaddef na gwrando chwaith ar be yw gwreiddyn y broblem - Wel dyma be sy'n bod yn y fro yma o leiaf - llygredd, effaith diwidiant (cynhyrchu trydan) ymarfer amaethyddiaeth, coedwigaeth, potsio a gor pysgota ar y moroedd. Yn anffodus does dim ewyllys i ddelio ar materion yma - felly atal pysgota ac ymhen rhyw ychydig flynyddoedd fydd neb yn cymryd sylw na diddordeb yng nglendid ein dyfreodd, nes wrth gwrs ei bydd rhyw hwyr, a bydd pawb yn boddi yng ngharthion ein hunain.
'Rwyn wir gobeithio y bydd holl egni'r gymdeithas yn ystod 2016 yn cael ei anelu at geisio cael Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru i wrando a gweithredu ar bryderon lleol. Mae yma'r wybodaeth ar arbernigrwydd i pawb gyd-weithio er bydd ein hamgylchedd. Gan ar ddiwedd y dydd does ddim eisiau i'r genhedlaeth sy'n ein dilyn fod yn feirniadol o be 'rydym ni yn adael iddynt fel etifeddiaeth.
Hwyl Fawr ac edrych ymlaen am be a ddaw yn ystod 2016.
--------------------------------
2015 turned out to be a year where we could look back upon with very much satisfaction, especially considering that our application for a Judicial Review at Caernarfon Court before Mr. Justice Hickinbottom was refused. This decision confirms Natural Resources Wales decision in that the Padarn Lake pollution was not responsible for the decline in charr numbers. This decision is likely has far reaching implications on SSSI's throughout Wales at least.
Fish Legal's opinion is that the implications surrounding this decision could have serious consequences for our environment and as such requested leave to appeal - this was also refused. Following this an appeal has now been lodged with the Court of Appeal in London. We await their reply.
Personally after listening to the presentations at the court I really wasn't that surprised by the outcome - as we as a small society had taken on the might of Natural Resources Wales and their masters at the Welsh Government and Welsh Water. Perhaps the justices at the court of appeal might be more in tune with what's going on.
Natural Resources Wales's decisions are not at all appreciated by our rural communities - especially those who appreciate that fishing brings much needed economic benefit in its wake. The latest matter under review and has been the subject of several meeting throughout Wales has been on the emotive subject of 'catch and release' for salmon and probably sea trout as well. We all appreciate that there has been a dramatic decline in salmon numbers but the sad part is that the authorities fail to address the real cause of the decline - in this area it's Hydro Power, pollution, agricultural practices, forestry, poaching and over fishing at sea. If these matters were given the attention they deserve than things would surely improve. We all feel that the only direction NRW and their cohorts would like to follow, would be to see fishing completely prohibited. Then in a few years there would be nobody left to look after and take an interest in what's affecting our waters. This would prevail until it's too late and by then we will all be drowning in our own effluent. By the time this takes place those responsible for today's decisions will have long disappeared over the horizon.
Despite all the negativity that's about the place - we all look forward for a positive 2016 and hope to direct all the societies energy to try and get Natural Resources Wales to listen and act on our local concerns. We have all the information and expertise, we should all work together for the benefit of our environment. After all we do not wish to leave a legacy, so that those who come after us will condemn us for the mess we left.
All the best and looking forward as to what 2016 brings.

Rhwng 24 a 25 Tachwedd bu gwrandawiad cais y gymdeithas am Adolygiad Barnwrol ar benderfyniad ymchwyliad Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru i lygredd Llyn Padarn ar effaith ar y torgoch. 'Roedd barn CNC yn ei ymchwilaid yn dweud fod yr holl lygredd heb gael dim effaith ar gynefin na iechyd poblogaeth y pysgodyn prin yma.
'Does dim achos fel hyn wedi bod o fewn y llysoedd newydd yng Nghaernarfon, ond 'roedd yn amlwg pwy sy'n gyrru'r gwrthwynebiad i'r cais - sef Llywodreath Cymru. Nid yw'n deg imi fynd ymhellach ar hyn oherwydd fod y barnwer Mr. Ustus Hickinbottom heb ryddhau ei ddyfarniad. Gobeithio bydd hyn i law cyn y nadolig.
----------------------------------------------
Between 24 and 25th. November the societies Judicial Review application at Caernarfon Justice Centre before Mr Justice Hickenbottom took place. The thrust of this application was to challenge National Resources Wales's decision that Padarn Lake's pollution had no detrimental effect on the charr population.
Being present at the hearing it was obvious that the Welsh Government was the body driving the opposition to our application. However as a decision is awaited - hopefully before christmas I'll refrain from further comment.

Gyda problemau Llyn Padarn yn cael effaith ar y torgoch, a stocio yn gorfod cyfmryd lle i geisio achub y boblogaeth( stocio heddiw lluniau eto ar y galeri prynhawn 'ma). Mae'n aelodau wedi symud i bysgota Llyn Cwellyn ble mae'r pysgodyn hardd yma ddim yn cael ei effeithio gan lygredd .
Yma mae'r pysgota yn ardderchog gyda'r torgoch yn ei maint naturiol - sef rhyw dri meu bedwar i'r pwys. Hen ddywediad yn Llanbris cyn y problemau medda Closs - ia dwi'n mynd yn ol i'r 1960's oedd - i wneud pwys mi oedd eisiau tri torgoch a ceiniog, ia cofiwch hen geiniog i'r rhai sy'n cofio.
Cawn weld be fydd dyfodol pysgotfa Padarn a'r Seiont gan fod ein achos drwy Fish Legal yn yr Uchel Lys at ddiwedd Tachwedd eleni - yng Nghaerdydd dwi'n credu fydd y gwrandawiad.
Diolch i Matt Perring am anfon llun torgoch o'r Cwellyn -gweler yn y galeri.
------------------------------
With Padarn's problems taking it's toll on the charr and artificial stocking taking place (this afternoon - photos on the Galery later on today) to try and revive the population. Members have turned to Cwellyn wich is unaffected by problems and the charr are in their natural size. The old saying, so say's Closs, that during 1960's in Llanberis was that to make a pound weight it takes three charr and a penny, an old penny to those who remember.
The fishing is good on Cwellyn and thanks to Matt Perring for a shot of a Cwellyn Charr - that's how they should be. (Photo on Galery)
We'll soon see how things are to develop on Padarn as the High Court hearing taken by Fish Legal against natural resources wales and Welsh Gov. Ministers is scheduled for the end of this month - at Cardiff I believe.

O'r diwedd mae eog i weld yn dangos yn y Fenai ger bwi 'Dead Man' arwydd reit dda eu bod yn perthyn i'r Seiont. Mae newyddion fod o leiaf un am 8 bwys wedi dod i enwair Malcolm Owen, Caernarfon.
Mae'r Llyfni yn llawn o Wyniadau/sewin - defnyddio gwyniadau gan na dyma'r enw lleol, term go ddiweddar yw sewin yn y fro hon.
'Rwyn teimlo ei bod yn eithriadol o bwysig I gadw a defnyddio'r hen enwau lleol, un o'r goreu yn fy nhyb yw Llyn Llam Dda ar y Gwyrfai, dyma ble gafodd Tomos Morgan, Waenfawr ei eog yn gynharach y mis - un da oedd hefyd am 8bwys.
Ma'e holl dyfroedd heblaw Seiont a Padarn yn 'sgota'n eithriadol o dda. mae'r eogiaid ac yn enwedig y gwyniadau ar gynnydd.
Mae gweithdy yng Nghaerdydd ar 2/9. i drafod penderfynisd Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru i atal stocio a cau deorfeydd Cymru . Am y tro cyntaf 'rwyn trio'r gwasanaeth hedfan o Sir Fon. Cychwyn am 8.55 a byddaf yn y cyfarfod yng nghanol y ddinas am 10.30 - da de! ar cwbwl gyda tacsi am £150. Gryn arbed wrth gymharu'r tren a gwesty a pres peint yn de. Neu wrth gwrs dreifio i lawr dyna siwrna o bron i 5 awr un ffordd, fawr gwell gyda'r tren.
Huw
At last salmon have started showing in the Straits by the 'Dead Man' buoy -a good sign that they are destined for the Seiont. One at least at 8lbs has made to fall to the rod of Malcolm Owen, Caernarfon.
The Llyfni is full of sea trout and the Gwyrfai also has had a run of salmon - and a nice of 8lbs came earlier in the month to Tomos Morgan, Waenfawr from Llyn Llan Dda - there is no inspirational translation to these wonderful old names and all should make the effort to use them - I'll task the lingusist's amongst you to translate in keeping with the original meaning.
All our water except the Seiont and Padarn have been fishing really well this year and both salmon and sea trout runs are improving.
2/9 sees a workshop being held in Cardiff to discuss Natural Resources Wales's decision to stop all stocking and close hatcheries in Wales. I'm trying the air service from Anglesey for the first time - 8.55am from Valley and I'll be in central Cardiff by 10.30 - flight taxi &all for £150 - I'll be home by 6.30pm. Train would take 4.30hrs each way and driving about 5 hours each way with hotel and beer to boot. We'll see how it goes

Can everybody please note that this years
Youth Fly-fishing Trials
to choose a team for 2016 will now be >held at Llandegfedd Reservoir on Sunday 6th September.
to choose a team for 2016 will now be >held at Llandegfedd Reservoir on Sunday 6th September.
The entry fees
to enter the trials have been significantly reduced and
the details of which, together with the new entry forms can soon be
found and downloaded off the WSTAA web site.
It is strongly requested that all clubs and individuals make a big
effort to encourage, develop and persuade as many
youths as possible within their clubs or associations to enter the
trials and ‘have a go’ and see what they could be missing.
A number of you are known to have a core of Junior anglers and we are
aware of one club who have taken the initiative and
have at least six junior anglers undergoing individual private
instruction as a preparation for possible entry into international
competitions. It would be great if others could also have the same
foresight and be inspired to do the same.
If any problems are experienced in downloading entry forms, Please
contact me.
Many Thanks
