About this water

The Júcar's lower plain reach as it approaches the Mediterranean below the Tous reservoir — warm, slow, alluvial water running through Valencia's rice-growing lowlands. A coarse fishery (barbel, carp, black bass in places), not trout water. Included for gauge/flow monitoring completeness on the Júcar main stem.
