Start with Diawl Bach (12-14) — on the bob / top dropper — slow figure-of-eight retrieve. Early in the day, try buzzers on a slow figure-of-eight or a booby on a fast-sink line near the bottom. Rainbows respond to more active retrieves — try short strips between pauses.
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.
Bank-only venue. Fish from accessible margins, points, weed edges, and inflows.
