- Fly only
Set up a broadside drift and cover the water systematically. Work a bushy searching pattern on the bob and drop a contrasting nymph on the point.
If the main plan is not working, switch to a smaller, more imitative pattern fished slower and deeper. A change of drift angle can also make a difference.
Sedge should come on through the afternoon as the water warms.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.
