Flyfishing for marble trout or danube salmon- hucho hucho
Flyfishing for those two species is almost simmilar. We use mostly 9# or 10# rod, sinking lines and streamers. For marble trout we use usually 7-10cm in lenght, for hucho hucho 10-20cm in lenght of the streamer.
Also the best conditions for flyfishing on marble trout and danube salmon is when water level is rising, getting milky color or even brown color of water.
The very important thing is that fisherman do not wade in the river if it is not necessary. Usually we wade only when crossing the river or so. Also very important is not to make any noise with walking on the shore (espacialy when you have low clear water level). So for the best results you need to cast from the shore.
Often people are making mistake when they stay at one pool too long time. Belive me if the marble trout or danube salmon is hungry, it would take a streamer on a first cast. Casting 5 times in same direction is usually only waste of time. On the picture below you can see how you can cast the pool in appropriate way without wasting time.
With marble trout or danube salmon is just like you need to find those fish who are hungry so ussually when the pool is small size 5 casts are enough, for bigger poool 10-15 casts. If you have no strike, you just move to another pool, simmple is that.
