How to fish it · for Brown Trout
When
Through the Castilla y León trout season. The Corneja is small intimate Sierra de Gredos water — fishes well once snowmelt drops.
Where
Pool tails and pocket water through the Corneja system. Small-river scale; read each lie carefully.
Method
Short upstream dry-dropper; nymph the deeper pockets. The Corneja is research-priority water — careful approach, light tackle, fish each lie before moving.
Kit
8'6 ft #3 to 9 ft #4 — small mountain stream. Floating line, 9 to 12 ft leader to 4 lb fluoro. Studded boots.
Likely species
Stoneflies

What would change the calculation
Warmer water — toward the 10–16 °C ideal band — would lift the temperature score.
A drop and clear would lift the flow and clarity scores.
The dawn and dusk windows score higher than the midday lull.
