Fishing Techniques
- For European grayling
Grayling often hold in deeper runs and pools, so focus your efforts there using a drifting technique to present your bait naturally.
- For Sea trout
Vary your retrieve speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to on a given day; Sea trout can be picky.
- For Atlantic salmon
When fishing for Atlantic salmon, pay close attention to water depth and current, as they often hold in specific locations to conserve energy.
