How to fish it · for Brown Trout
When
Through the Veneto trout season, 7 March to 28 September — but remember Bacino 5 closes fishing on Tuesdays and Fridays regardless. Afternoon hatches build through spring; dawn and dusk once the Agordino valley warms up in summer.
Where
Pocket water and boulder-strewn runs below the Lago di Alleghe dam, opening into longer pools as the valley widens toward Agordo and on down to the Piave confluence.
Method
Upstream nymph through the broken pocket water; dry fly to risers where the current settles into glides. Single barbless hook, and remember the season cap of 100 salmonids across the whole basin.
Kit
9 to 10 ft #4 for medium freestone water with Dolomite clarity. Floating line, 12 ft leader to 4 to 5 lb fluoro. Studded boots for the gorge cobble.
Why this works
Good — water clarity is right today, though time of day could be better.
