How to fish it · for Trout
When
Conditions are not ideal but fishable at Embalse de La Granda. The ripple should help fish move and feed more confidently.
Where
Start with Microtricóptero de Becada (18-20) on a As per local method. Early in the day, nymphs and buzzers fished slowly tend to outperform attractors.
The plan
Plan A

Start with Microtricóptero de Becada (18-20) on a As per local method. Early in the day, nymphs and buzzers fished slowly tend to outperform attractors.

Plan B

Fish early and late, try deeper during the heat of the day with a fast-sinking line.

Watch for

Evening tends to be the best period in summer — stay late if you can for a sedge or spinner fall.

Either bank or boat

Good ripple suits both bank and boat. Bank: work inflows, dam walls, and points. Boat: broadside drift covering wind lanes.
