The reservoirs of the lower Tormes spread across the Castilian plain below Salamanca, big open waters under a wide sky where the fishing changes with depth and season. The cooler, oxygenated reaches near the inflows and dam hold trout; the slower, warmer lower water belongs to barbel and the coarse fish. This is a country of light and wind as much as water — bright, exposed, and best worked early and late when the heat eases. Find the cool, find the moving water, and the trout will be near it. It rewards an angler who reads the reservoir like a river that happens to be standing still.
