Difficult drift conditions on Carrowmore Lake — sheltered areas may rescue the day
No strong hatch signals at the moment — general searching tactics should work best. Strong wind will make open-water drifting difficult. Look for sheltered bays and lee shores.
Conditions
Bank - find shelter
Strong wind makes boat fishing difficult — sheltered bank spots near lee shores will fish best.
Approach
With limited drift, anchor or fish static from sheltered positions. Lead with Traditional loch team wets on the point and Dabbler and bumble attractor team on the dropper.
Recommended flies
Active food signals
