Middle Stream Section
The Dry Fly Only Stretch
Inside of the yellow bars is the Approx. 1.5 km. long dry-fly stretch of the Ager. Additionally there are special signs along the Ager that identify this section. The sometimes slow-moving Ager here invites you to top-class dry-fly fishing for trophy-size trout.

Our walk along the Ager now leads us to the middle section. This is the most enticing section for many fly fishermen, and it begins at the end of the Regauer Senke at the Roman Moser Parcours. Now it moves quickly into the Riesenberger curve. In this curve the Ager has a relatively fast current, but it is slowed down in flat riffles into a slower-moving pace. This is where the dry-fly-only stretch on the Ager begins. The leisurely flow to the Hessenberger dam is perfectly suited for this most elegant kind of fly fishing. Rushing over the dam, the Ager reaches the SpitzStraight Stretch one of the best spots on the Ager. Only slowed down by the granite-boulder structures along the banks, the Ager flows toward Dornet. Two dams at the end of this spot, also called the Rennstrecke, take some of the speed away from the Ager and let it flow leisurely through the Dorneter curve towards the Stögmüller Dam. Above this dam is where the dry-fly-only stretch ends, and you can now use nymphs and streamers again. At the Stögmüller weir the Ager plunges over a big dam structure and flows rapidly into the Zeislauer Straight Stretch. Flat stretches and dead-fall trees slow the Ager to a medium speed in the direction of the Lower Ager Footbridge.
