The Loughor – also known as the Llychwr – rises in the Black Mountains and flows south-east through Ammanford to enter its estuary in the Bristol Channel below Pontar-dulais. Sea trout runs are claimed to be improving on this river with salmon more common than in the recent past. Best times for migratory fish are April-July and August-October. The river also contains brown trout. Associations offer the best chance of fishing for the visitor.
