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.
Numbers are intensity 0 (none) to 3 (peak) — a guide, not a guarantee.
Conditions are ideal for Walchensee — wind, cloud and temperature all line up.
One of Germany's largest and deepest alpine lakes, extremely clear water holding lake trout and Arctic char. Bank and boat fishing, stocking varies—confirm target species locally. The clarity is stunning; the fish know you can see them.
