Ten days after the opening on Kvennan Fly Fishing, a heavy rainstorm hit the area. The river rose, and surface activity slowed down for a short time. But as usual, it did not take long before Glomma sank and cleared up, and the fish again started feeding on the surface.

The water temperature has recently been measured at 11°C and some precipitation is expected in the area in the future, probably a only an advantage for the rest of the season.

If you hit the water level just after a heavy rainstorm, it is a golden opportunity to test your nymph skills, or go for one of the KFF’s big trout with a big streamer.

As usual, there is a solid number of big grayling being netted this season, and some of the season’s most interesting mayfly-hatches are just around the corner.

Since the stretch is so rich in insect species, you get many hatches throughout the season. Although different subsurface nymph tactics may yield the most fish per day, the surface activity on Kvennan is usually very good when the conditions are right for it.

You can have good dry fly fishing until the river closes, and Kvennan is a great place to stretch the fly season well into October, no matter what kind of flies you like to fish with.
