We were a group of 4 young people and Gaspar took us for the whole day out in many different places. He is really a top guide, who knows the rivers, the fishes, the conditions and the baits you need. He is really passionate about fishing and willing to share. We totally recommend him as well for beginners as for pro!!!

July 12, 2019Had a 2 days guided tour with Gasper. He has an in depth knowledge of the region, sharp eyes in finding the fish and a lot of patience and dedication in finding the most effective flies. Great experience that i can strongly recommend. Manfred

September 23, 2021Being 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!

I booked a half-day fly fishing trip on a short notice while traveling through Slovenia and reading about the best fly fishing in the world. My guide was Walter, he was amazing. He was very patient with me as I am a beginner to fly fishing and his knowledge and passion is without end. I caught 3 trout and was extremely happy. I learned so much about fly fishing and the eco system in those 5 hours. Thanks again Walter, I had a wonderful day to remember.

June 16, 2022Had 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!
