Yesterday some friends and I visited the Möhne River in the Sauerland region of Germany.
When I looked from the bridge at the end of the stretch I saw rising fish so I fished with the dry fly for a while.
I had no luck with the dry fly, most likely the fish where chub.

I worked my way upstream fishing a nymph and finally hooked a brown trout in one of the deeper pools.
Before lunch I managed to catch another little brown.
Some trout where rising but there where not many insects on the water.

In the afternoon I met up with my friends who had caught some nice fish with the streamer.
After lunch I fished a deep part of the river with streamers and had three nice fish in a short timespan.

I then moved into the part of the stream where trees made casting a challenge.
There was quite some fish activity and I hooked one very pretty marked brown trout.

In the evening I worked my way up to the beginning of the stretch and had a few more strikes on the streamer.
The insects where gone and there was no surface activity anymore.
I ended the day with six brown trout, five of them where of good size.

A few pictures:

That looks a lovely river with some fine trout. Which part of Germany?

The part of the river I visited is located upstream from the Möhne reservoir about 70km east of Dortmund.
