How to fish it · for pike
When
Pike are under severe thermal stress. Post-release mortality is high. Defer the session until water cools below 19°C.
Where
Water at 23.4°C. This is the line where catch-and-release kills pike. Do not fish for them today.
The plan
Plan A

Water at 23.4°C. This is the line where catch-and-release kills pike. Do not fish for them today.

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

Evening tends to be the best period in summer — stay late if you can for a sedge or spinner fall.

Boat — drift

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

About this water

Named by Madrid-area fly guides as one of the regional pike waters. A reservoir-type stillwater south of the city with pike populations that respond to big streamers and poppers. More niche than the Extremadura pike waters, but a genuine pike-fly option for Madrid-based anglers.
