Start with Caddis Emerger (12-16) on a As per local method. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses. If that does not produce, switch depth or speed before changing the pattern entirely.
If surface work dries up, try a diawl bach or hare's ear on the point and skate a sedge pattern on the bob at last light.
Evening tends to be the best period in summer — stay late if you can for a sedge or spinner fall.
Good ripple suits both bank and boat. Bank: work inflows, dam walls, and points. Boat: broadside drift covering wind lanes.

Numbers are intensity 0 (none) to 3 (peak) — a guide, not a guarantee.
A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
A 9-hectare fly reservoir in the Armorican interior of the Côtes-d'Armor, stocked with rainbow trout and managed by the local federation. Float tubes are allowed, which is what makes the still water fish properly — you can work the margins and the drop-offs rather than flogging from the bank. A carte de pêche covers it. Spring and autumn are the honest windows; high summer slows as the shallow Breton water warms.
