- Free fishing
Water at 22.2°C — too warm to target pike today: poor sport, and where catch-and-release is legal (designated pre-2007 waters) warm water makes released fish die. Where it isn't, the official advice is to remove any fish caught from the water rather than return it. Either way, wait for cooler water.
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.
Flat calm suits bank fishing near features — points, weed beds, and inflows where fish patrol.

- Comunidad de Madrid licence required

A reasonable day here, though cloud isn't quite in the sweet spot.
