My first flyfishing trip! We practised 1 or 2 times in this flyfishing-only trout lake in the South-East of the Netherlands called 'de ronde bleek'.
Before we knew it, two Flemish guys, one Dutch guy and a Norwegian guy were on their way to flyfish together in Slovenia!
We were overwhelmed by the beauty of Slovenian nature and the friendliness of the Slovenian people. A lot of big-sized rainbow trouts and marble trouts were caught. If you plan to go there: make sure you check out the links to the accommodation and guide above!
