How Big?

How Big Is a Trophy Huchen?

Huchen photographs lie. There is no scale in a river and everything looks big in a net, so people hear "one metre" without really picturing it. Drag the slider.

Why Fish With Us

Local guides, not contractors

Every guide lives on the rivers they fish. This isn't a seasonal gig — it's their home water.

A Dedicated Guide Team

A small, hand-picked team covering eight rivers and one flagship expedition, not a rotating cast of freelancers.

Four countries, one standard

Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia and Montenegro — guided to the same exacting standard everywhere we fish.

Small groups, real attention

We keep angler-to-guide ratios low, on purpose, on every trip we run.

Twice Each August

The Mongolia Expedition

Two departures each August. Strictly limited spots. The world's largest salmonid, in river country that sees almost no other anglers.

What Anglers Say

The Mongolia trip is the real thing — remote camp, serious water, and a guide team that clearly does this every year. Landed the taimen of a lifetime on day seven.
Erik LindgrenSweden
Fast, technical water right through the middle of Banja Luka — didn't expect town-water fishing to be this good. Lost a good brown trout on the first evening but made up for it the next morning. Would go back for a full week next time rather than two days.
James WhitfieldUnited Kingdom
Six days on the Sana and the huchen fishing was everything I hoped for. Dino reads the water like nobody I've fished with — worth every kilometer from Munich.
Markus SchneiderGermany
The Lim valley under the Prokletije mountains is one of the most beautiful places I've fished, huchen or no huchen. We did move a big fish on day two that I'll be thinking about for years. Well organized from the airport pickup onward.
Mika VirtanenFinland
The Una's travertine pools are even better than the photos suggest — gin-clear water and grayling that actually eat dry flies all afternoon. Emir was patient with my casting and knew exactly which seam to put me on. A proper day of dry fly fishing.
