Set up a broadside drift and cover the water systematically. Fish Small Streamer as your primary pattern.
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.
Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.
A gentle ripple is ideal for drifting — broadside drift covering the wind lanes should be productive.

Conditions are ideal for Hallstätter See — wind, cloud and temperature all line up.
WFD re-coded 2026-09-14 after the pin audit: matched by point query against EEA WISE WFD2022_SurfaceWaterBody (the lake water body). Status: WISE 2022 (3rd RBMP) ecological class 2 = Good, chemical 'failing to achieve good' (Austria-wide in the 2022 cycle). Prior id ATOK401220005 (Bad) described a different reach — a river code on a lake.
