How to fish it · for Trout
When
June–September (best July–August, midnight sun)
Where
With limited drift, anchor or fish static from sheltered positions. Work a bushy searching pattern on the bob and drop a contrasting nymph on the point. Calm evenings are perfect for individual dry fly work — target rising fish.
The plan
Plan A
With limited drift, anchor or fish static from sheltered positions. Work a bushy searching pattern on the bob and drop a contrasting nymph on the point. Calm evenings are perfect for individual dry fly work — target rising fish.
Plan B
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.
Watch for
Keep an eye on changing conditions — wind shifts and cloud breaks can trigger short feeding spells.
Either bank or boat
Calm evenings can fish well from bank or boat — target rising fish wherever you find them.
