La Drobie

La Drobie is a river flowing through Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. 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 La Drobie, 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 Northern pike

  Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.

• For Brown trout

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