Start with Diawl Bach (12-14) — on the bob / top dropper. 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.
In wind, bank fish the lee shore — boats can anchor in productive areas if conditions allow.
