Poland's largest dam lake in the Bieszczady mountains, remote and wild. Trout presence variable; the San river feeds in from the south. Confirm target species before visiting. The remote mountain setting is the reliable attraction.

Start with Perdigón (14-18) on a slow figure-of-eight retrieve. Midday in warm weather — switch to a fast-sink or Di-7 and fish boobies or blobs along the bottom. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses.
Fish early and late, try deeper during the heat of the day with a fast-sinking line.
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.

Southern Polish trout and grayling rivers led by the Dunajec model: nymphing by day, dry fly in the evening, streamer as support.
A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
