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.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.

A good match for Llyn Rhosgoch — most conditions are close to what it fishes best in.
Picturesque is the word the Aberystwyth AA uses for Rhosgoch and they're not wrong — five hectares of upland water, a short uphill walk from the road, wild brown trout trickle-stocked to a pound and a half. The best fishing comes when the Coch-y-Bonddu beetle is up in late June, or on a still sedge evening through July. Fly only.
