2007
Part 1. Three Days on the Sava Bohinjka.
Our first look at Slovenian trout. From the bridge at Lake Bohinj.
The next morning, still there.

Lunchtime fishing at the campsite.
Darren into a Grayling.
Towards the lower end of the stretch.
The predominant species on Sava Bohinjka's Bohinj Fishing Club stretch.
Local Wildlife.
Landing a nice fish at the Mostnica confluence.
A lot of these guys around, but not enough to make the fish selective.
Another nice day on the river.
One of the many Grayling we caught.
A nice corner on the Sava Bohinjka.
Divers in the Gorge above Polje. Not what usually scares the fish when we're
at the river.
Me playing my biggest fish of the trip. A 24-25" Rainbow on a Bunny
Leech Streamer.
Darrens biggest fish, a 23-24" Rainbow on a deep fished nymph.

This
trip was booked through Angling-Worldwide. We gave them a list of our requirements and left them to tailor a trip around our wishes and restrictions, not easy. As you can see from above Steffan made a great job of it, the guiding he arranged was superb and we got to try out some great rivers.
