Well, not the video I wanted to make to showcase what in my humble opinion is one of the worlds greatest fly fishing destinations. A number of factors made this video difficult to make not least the torrential rain! Worse than that though I managed to overwrite my A roll intended for this video.
I have created a fly fishing video with what I had and I hope it gives a small flavour even with the bad weather of what Slovenia has to offer the visiting angler.

Very welcome 👍

[@pauljohnsontwonoviceangler6170]

Excellent. We enjoyed that. Challenging conditions.

[@lindsayiflyfish]

You can get caught out with the weather but that happens everywhere 👍

[@darylrobertson5489]

Watched part 1 and was amazed by the water. Watching part 2 there at the end where you released that trout and the clarity of that water is magical. 😊

[@lindsayiflyfish]

It’s a great place to visit even if you are not fishing 👍

[@TightLinesNW]

Absolutely beautiful..... Thanks for sharing!

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Great place if you are looking for a destination that has it all 👍

Great short video Lindsay stunning fish & scenery 🐟🎣

[@lindsayiflyfish]

It was a shame I had not realised I had lost so much footage when the laptop went wrong 🙁 That was just b roll clips with a voice over.

[@lawrencemacd63]

@@lindsayiflyfish you’ve got some clips to remember it 🐟🎣

[@jamslockyer]

Lesley and Tomo run a great set up. Good bunch of guys

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Had a great trip, Tomo was an excellent host. Looking forward to my next trip to Slovenia. Want to get off the beaten track next time though.

[@jamslockyer]

Last time we went miles into remote gorges. Proper adventure and a lot of scrambling down huge valleys. Found some great grayling

[@johnlindsay3202]

cracking video again Lindsay but hard going when its pouring and you get soaked thanks again

[@lindsayiflyfish]

The soaking came from falling in rather than the rain. I don’t mind a bit of rain 👍

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Excellent video

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Thanks pal.

[@RickLohrey]

Very good Lindsay …stunning location …and some stoic resilience shown by the two of you in toughing it out and putting fish in the net 🤔👍

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Thanks pal, you don’t go all that way to look out a window at the rain! 👍

[@bobbell5265]

Excellent videos Lindsay 👌👌👌

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Thanks Robbie 👍

[@michaelshaw8370]

Again the conditions gave the fishing an extra twist just make it even more of a challenge. A thunder storm while in a mountain valley has to be one of natures perfect surround sound moments. A major safety concern would be how high is the risk of a sudden spate surge of water? The rapid hit from a foot plus of extra water. Can turn interesting into darn dangerous pretty quickly. Back in the nineties while fishing the upper Tyne. A pollution spill from the toilet roll factory at Prudoe needed a fast flush from Kielder to clear it to help avoid a major fish kill. I heard the rush of water. Rushed to the bank too late it took my feet out from under me. Lucky for me I had a life jacket that inflated. Almost a mile before I managed to get to the bank and a long soggy walk back to the car. With a wreaked set of waders lucky only the waders and not my leg slashed open.

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Sounds like you were very lucky Mick.

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Thanks for the sub

[@rtgMTB]

Hi, love the video what a beautiful place. I don't want to ask you for the exact amount it cost for this trip but how much roughly would a weeks fishing cost there.

[@rtgMTB]

Just watched the part 1 and saw the prices lol, 1 step ahead of me.

[@lindsayiflyfish]

No bother it could be done cheaper. We stayed in top notch accommodation and if you were to buy a five day ticket you get one of the days free.

[@rtgMTB]

@@lindsayiflyfish thank you, I’m a student so cheaper is better, lovely river never seen one so clear even in Scotland

[@lindsayiflyfish]

@@rtgMTB Careful pal it can be addictive ;-) .....lol.

[@Kaka99296]

Are there rivers/waters in Slovenia where fishing with spinners/spoons is allowed? I have yet to learn how to fish with fly rods:)

[@lindsayiflyfish]

Not sure buddy never fished like that.

[@sorbodio]

It's funny how many of those fish are stocked trout 😂😂😂. what's the point? 90 euros per day 🤣. One reason local Slovenias can't afford to fish there.. All for rich foreigners who don't know the fish are stocked 😂😂😂

[@lindsayiflyfish]

I think most anglers know the fish are stocked. It’s not a big secret. I think it is expensive for sure but it is still a lot less expensive than fishing the Test or the the other chalk streams where I live. I wish I could say I was rich but that’s not the case. I like everything about Slovenia could the fishing be a little more affordable yes. Will it stop me returning, no.

[@thomasharrison72]

It's a long way to go for some very expensive fishing

[@lindsayiflyfish]

@@thomasharrison72 and worth every penny!

[@roryrandomnumbers]

People say the same about Scotland, with several of the big rivers charging >£250 per day...

[@lindsayiflyfish]

@@roryrandomnumbers Access to good rivers will always come at a premium. It is a great shame.
