How to fish it · for Brown Trout
When
Nymphing can work through most of the day.
Where
Cover mixed depths.
Method
Start with tight-line nymphs and adjust if fish rise or drift higher.
Kit
9 ft #4 rod, floating line, 12 ft tapered leader to 4–5 lb fluoro tippet.
Why this works
Water at 19.1°C — above the brown trout caution line (18°C). Fish dawn or dusk only. Land it fast, wet hands, no air shots.

Permits & access
Permit required — see local rules.
- Se requiere licencia de pesca gallega
- Según el tramo, puede ser necesario un permiso adicional de coto
- Consulta la normativa vigente de la Xunta antes de viajar; la tradición salmonera del río no convierte al salmón en un objetivo legal.

Water here around 19°C. Nothing cooler within range — carry a thermometer.

What would change the calculation
Cooler water — back toward the 10–16 °C ideal band — would lift the score and ease welfare.
Directions
Seasons & zones
- Sea trout 1 May → 31 July
- Trout 1 May → 31 July
Sea trout: Variable seasonal (2026) — Lérez reo culture: the river has a historic reo tradition and sea trout remain the practical migratory focus now that salmon are prohibited. Stocks are present but condition-dependent — runs follow rain events. Not a reliable primary target in a poor year.
Salmon: Heritage only (2026) — Salmon fishing banned in Galicia by 2026 Xunta decree. Heritage salmon river — not a salmon fishing destination.
