My friends and I had an amazing fishing trip to the Soca Valley in Slovenia. We fished hard for 3 days catching marble trout (up to 70 cm), wild rainbows and hybrids. Every day something new, every session fish. We couldn't have done any of this without the expert guiding of Gasper of Soca Fly and his colleague Bostjan. We could measure our success from the comments of other fisherman we met along the way, who had all heard of us and knew of our achievements. Gasper and Bostjan, know the waters to fish methods and flies to use. Without them this would have been an ordinary trip to a very beautiful part of the world, as it was it turned out to be a trip that makes memories. I can't recommend Gasper highly enough.

August 10, 2021Very professional service and excellent guide. The fishing was different to my usual reservoir fishing, it was fast flowing rivers and nymphing. Despite my poor casting, my guide Taras persevered in teaching me and I managed to land 2 rainbow trout (they fight hard for the size). I lost a few more as well! Highly recommend for a fully guided (and equipped if need be) day. Taras - I will post some pheasant feathers for you in the Autumn 🙂 Excellent communication with Gasper to organise the day, always responded quickly to all my questions. It was a once in a lifetime trip for me so well worth getting the best guide. Thank You!!!

Being a guide myself I highly recommend Gaspar who showed me the astonishing Soca river. I’m not a super experienced fly angler (predatory fishing with hard and softbaits in Amsterdam is my thing) but with the accurate cues of Gaspar things went just great. I had only 4 hours to fish and this was enough to make my dream come true: catching trout on the Soca. The first was the biggest, but the second was the coolest in terms of spotting the fish behind a boulder, finding the best spot to cast and choosing the right fly. I’ll never forget that beast moving to the streamer, making a turn and gulping the thing in his big mouth. Just text book, classic, priceless. And I will be back for that marble trout that turned away last minute. Thanks for the amazing experience!

July 23, 2018Two of our teenage sons went fly fishing for a day and Gasper really went above and beyond what would be expected of a guide. He really took care of the boys, helped them out and made sure they had a successful experience.

August 19, 2019Had the pleasure to go fishing with Gasper on a guided tour & I can absolutely recommend it. Gasper is a a true pro when it comes to fly fishing in the valley and he went above and beyond to make this a very memorable day for me. Communication and organization was easy and he is a pleasure to hang out with. Thanks again!
