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.
Watch for Sedge towards evening — this could be the best window of the day.
A gentle ripple is ideal for drifting — broadside drift covering the wind lanes should be productive.
Numbers are intensity 0 (none) to 3 (peak) — a guide, not a guarantee.
A reasonable day here, though temperature isn't quite in the sweet spot.
Glacial corrie llyn in the Brecon Beacons below Corn Du. Wild brown trout in dramatic mountain scenery. Access by 2-mile walk from Storey Arms. Classic Beacons hill llyn — small, wild fish in clear water. Traditional wet flies and dabblers.
