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.
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.

High-altitude glacial lake fishing in Durmitor National Park. Brown trout and brook trout at 1,400-1,700m. Bank fishing with small dries, nymphs, and wet flies.
A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
Four glacial lakes within Durmitor National Park sit at 1,400–1,700m altitude in classic cirque settings surrounded by dramatic Dinaric limestone peaks. Brown trout and brook trout provide high-altitude stillwater fishing from the bank with small dries, nymphs, and wet flies. May–September season. UNESCO World Heritage setting with spectacular scenery and short, altitude-limited fishing windows. Daily zone permits; catch-and-release with barbless-style rules.
