The Triglav National Park and the Julian Alps provide an ideal natural habitat for wildlife, butterflies, birds and alpine flowers. All this contributes to a bountiful catch using insect-shaped lures and ensures a fly-fishing experience that is unique in Europe. The area offers unspoilt nature and easy access to rivers.
District 1: Lake Bohinj
The lake is home mainly to salmonid fish: brown trout, grayling, rainbow trout, huchen and chub. Spinning, fly fishing and float fishing are permitted, using one rod and one artificial or live bait. The district is managed by the Bohinj Angling Association. Fishing season: from 1 March to 14 November.
Fishing Area 2: The Sava Bohinjka River
A beautiful Alpine river that flows out of Lake Bohinj and runs through a narrow valley. The only permitted method of fishing is fly fishing (catch and keep or catch and release). Fishing season: from 1 June to 14 November.
District 3: The Mostnica River
A stream that rises at the head of the Voje Valley and is known for its gorges. Only ‘catch and release’ fly fishing is permitted, with a maximum of 5 anglers per day. Fishing season: from 1 June to 14 November.
