Oued Nekor is a river flowing through Tanger-Tétouan-Al Hoceïma ⵟⴰⵏⵊ-ⵟⵉⵜⴰⵡⵉⵏ-ⵍⵃⵓⵙⵉⵎⴰ طنجة تطوان الحسيمة, Morocco. River fishing rewards anglers who learn to read current — fish hold in the seams between fast and slow water, behind rocks and submerged logs, and at the heads and tails of pools. At Oued Nekor, working a lure or fly down-and-across the current usually outperforms casting straight upstream. Higher water concentrates fish; clear, low water makes them spookier.

Fishing Techniques

• For Striped mullet

  Use a slow, steady retrieve when using lures, as mullet are not aggressive strikers; Chumming with bread can concentrate mullet in an area.

• For White seabream

  Use a light line and small hooks, as White Seabream are cautious and can be easily spooked.

• For Morocco dentex

  Vary your retrieve speed and jigging action to find what the fish are responding to on any given day. Use fluorocarbon leaders to minimize visibility in clear water.
