Seasons

Spring

March usually starts fairly cool with some cold northerly winds.
April the weather starts to warm up with some prolonged periods of rain.
By May the weather has really warmed up with lots of sunshine, and this is when the catfish are thought to spawn.
As you would expect with the rain and increase in water temperature the Ebro runs fairly high with a lot of sediment and strong currents as the snow melt begins to fill the tributaries in the mountains that feed the Ebro.

Summer

The temperatures climb for the next few months and usually exceed 30c.
With the rise in water temperature and increased metabolism, June, July and August see really good fishing.

Autumn

September sees the weather starting to cool down a bit and continues to do so throughout October and November. The winds seem to increase but with the blue skies it is very pleasant.
The river is still running at its summer depth which is fairly low with water temperatures noticeably falling by November.
As you would expect by the end of October the fishing starts to calm down from the high action of the summer and early autumn months, still producing a good number of 100lb plus catfish and large carp.

Winter

December, January and February is winter wherever you go in the northern hemisphere. There are some cold northerly winds and heavy rain, but still some sunny days into the late teens.
The river starts to take on a bit more colour and swells slightly although it does not peak until spring with the heavy rains and snow melt.
Although catfish can still be caught at this time of year with water temperatures at their lowest what we like to target are the large zander and wild carp the Ebro produces.

The above information is only a guide.
Fishing conditions vary according to weather.
