A reservoir near Corvera/Avilés that formerly served as a coto intensivo for put-and-take rainbow trout. Like the other city-adjacent intensivos (San Andrés, La Granda), there is no clear evidence of current trout stocking. The 2016 critique of salmonid management in Asturias noted that restocking programmes were often poorly managed, and the pattern since COVID has been one of quiet decline rather than intentional phase-out. What remains is a mixed coarse fishery dominated by carp with occasional brown trout. For a genuinely stocked Asturian stillwater, El Arenero at Tineo is the realistic option.

Good late spring conditions for Embalse de Trasona
Good wave on — drift country. A useful wave. Work the productive shore.
Current conditions suit Embalse de Trasona well for late spring tactics. The ripple should help fish move and feed more confidently.
Conditions on the water
Some readings unavailable — check directly before fishing.
The brief
The plan
Start with Perdigón (14-18) — on the point — slow figure-of-eight retrieve. If that does not produce, switch depth or speed before changing the pattern entirely.
If fish refuse on top, drop to a buzzer under an indicator at different depths.
Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.
Good ripple suits both bank and boat. Bank: work inflows, dam walls, and points. Boat: broadside drift covering wind lanes.
What's on, when
Numbers are intensity 0 (none) to 3 (peak) — a guide, not a guarantee.
