How to fish it · for Rainbow
When
May–June (spring); September (autumn) — cooler water either side of high summer
Where
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.
The plan
Plan A

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.

Plan B

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.

Watch for

Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.

Boat — drift

A gentle ripple is ideal for drifting — broadside drift covering the wind lanes should be productive.

About this water

Böljesjön is a small, fly-fishing-only put-and-take lake run by Abborresjöns fiskevårdsområde, one of four waters (with Abborresjön, Ottersjön and Stora Kroksjön) on a shared day-ticket in the Ale/Lerum forest country north-east of Gothenburg. Spin fishing is not permitted here — this is the fly-only water of the group. Coniferous mixed forest surrounds a wadeable shoreline with five casting docks, rest tables, a wind shelter for overnighting and a toilet at the parking area. Stocked with rainbow trout, fished abundantly.
