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.
Sedge should come on through the afternoon as the water warms.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.

Six hundred metres of bank around a two-hectare pond, six hundred metres further into the Ystwyth uplands than Pond Rhosrydd. A large head of 10-to-16 ounce brown trout that lift to a Coch-y-Bonddu on a warm afternoon and rise to a small sedge through a summer evening. The occasional bigger fish to keep you honest.
