Akulata.com - Fly Fishing In Bulgaria

There is not a big diference between Fly Fishing in Bulgaria and Serbia. I can see that you guys go for chub, trout, asp, pike, pearch...just like flyfishers from Serbia do. The small diference is that few rivers in West Serbia do have grayling and huchen, but others are just like Struma, Iskar...
Some of the best trout rivers in Serbia are

Hi, Ivan,

Yes, you are right, the same fish, that you said, we have them here in Bulgaria.
Thank you for showing us pictures form your best rivers!

I would like to ask you, do you have there day or week licences (dozvola) for fishing for foreign fisherman, for example for rivers like Visocica and Nisava? How can I get one there, if I decide to go fishing there?

Bistro,

Hi, Ivan, sorry for my bad English

Would you tell me something about asp fly fishing in Serbia. It will be very interesting for me

Tight Lines!

Rosen

Dear Akulata, you can buy day or week licence for fishing in Visocica and upper Nisava in fishing club "Pastrmka" in Pirot. For any other river in Serbia procedure is the same- you must find fishing club and buy licence. The best and fastest way to get licence, fish and good fishing spots is to be with some flyfishing friend from Serbia. That's what this "international ff forum" is for.

Dear Rosen, i speak "Tarzan-English" too.

I can see that fly fishing for asp is maybee more popular in Bulgaria than in Serbia. Simply, it's a matter of fashion. There are great conditions in lower Drina, Morava and of course, big rivers, Tisa, Sava and Danube.
I am one of a few asp flyfishing fans in Serbia and i found it one of the best fish for adrenaline junkeys.

I like your rivers

Sorry. But, it's simply to register on that web site. Just do it and you can see lots of pictures from Serbian FF web gallery.

I registred and it's ok. You've caUGHT a marvellus asp!

Hi Mixmaster, there are gorgeous trophy fish in the Gallery.

I register in your forum becouse there is a lot of useful information and magnificent fly patterns for trout and chub.
I'll be interested for working grayling patterns too.

Tight lines.

Thanks Dr. Misho.
I am not catching grayling so often, because they are in West Serbia. Coincidently, next weekend i will be at river Rzav, at flyfishing competiton for national league, and maybe some grayling will attack my flies. At this period grayling may take larger flies as mayfly or large brook spinner. Small flies, as Last Sight, BWO, Midges and Klinkhammers are allready in my box.

Hi, Ivan,

Thank you very much for the information!
You said you gonna be on the competition, you may try this fly tied with CDC:

It is good one for grailing, tied on #18 or 20 hooks.

Best regards,

This is the grayling from river Rzav. Water was high, so small flies haven't work. It is large brook spinner time and i cought few graylings on Red Spinner nr. 10. It is unusual, but grayling is moody fish.

Hi, Ivan,

Yes, you are right about the size of the flies and the moody fish, I have tried it personaly, but this is a long story, I will tell you some day.
Very nice fish you have cought, thanks for the picture!

Would you tell me, please, how many days per week you have the permission to fish on your local rivers?

Bistro,

Every day, except Gradac and Djetinja in West Serbia.

Thank you veru much, Ivan!

Bistro,
