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.
Evening tends to be the best period in summer — stay late if you can for a sedge or spinner fall.
A gentle ripple is ideal for drifting — broadside drift covering the wind lanes should be productive.

A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
The 'floating island' lake recorded by Giraldus Cambrensis in 1188 — six hectares above Rhyd Ddu, southwest of Snowdon. SGLL's stocked water, rainbows from one and three-quarter pounds up to five from the Llanrug hatchery, bank and boat fishing, fly only. Historical curiosity meets functional stocked fishery.
