Fishing in Lake Guillelmo

You can do three types of sport fishing: the fly fishinghe spinning and and the boat fishingeither trolling. For those people who have never done this type of activity, it is recommended to hire the assistance of a professional guide:

• Fly fishing (Fly casting): it is one of the most authentic and challenging fishing. The technique consists of projecting the lure with a movement of the rod, in the form of a whip, which is transmitted to the line, or line. A light and particularly flexible rod is used to cast the lure. This throw consists of three basic steps, thrown backwards, pause and thrown forward. Basically it is intended to attract the fish with a lure that imitates drowned or dry insects, in a very natural and delicate way. Fly fishing requires great skill and knowledge, which is why its fans consider it an art.
• Spoon (Spinning): This type of fishing consists of throwing a lure, or spoon, and picking it up imitating the movements of a small fish with mobility difficulties. This is achieved by making small jerks or blows with the rod when picking up the lure, trying to exert a vibrating and zigzagging action that induces the attack of the fish that we want to catch.

It is a modality that is carried out during navigation, and consists of dragging a lure from a moving boat, either motorized or rowing. It is generally applied to catch large trout in lakes. The captain of the boat (who in turn is a professional fishing guide) is the one who will organize the trip taking into account the characteristics of the group, thus guaranteeing that the experience is highly satisfactory for everyone.
