The plan
Plan A

Start with Daddy Long Legs (10-12) on a As per local method. As evening approaches, switch to dries or emergers if you see surface activity.

Plan B

A fry-imitating pattern stripped through the margins can save a blank in autumn.

Watch for

Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.

Bank

Bank fishing near inflows, dam walls, and weed beds. Move to find feeding fish.
