Riu Fred

Flowing through Catalunya, Spain, Riu Fred is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Riu Fred hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Riu Fred can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.

Fishing Techniques

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.

• For Largemouth bass

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.
