Marble Trout (salmo trutta marmoratus) is considered one of the largest stream-dwelling trout in the world. The largest specimen ever recorded weighed 25 kg (roughly 55 pounds) and was 121 cm long (almost 4 feet long). This beautiful relative of the Brown Trout is only found in streams draining into the Adriatic. With a tremoltuous past including near extinction in the Soca Valley after WWI, we are proud to report that it is now very common to see Marble Trout on the Soca River.

The European Grayling looks similar to North American Grayling, but is quite a different animal! Anyone who has fished for Grayling in North America may recall that they can be somewhat easy to catch. Not the case with this fish! The Grayling is one of the most difficult sportfish to catch on a fly rod in Slovenia and is therefore one of the most soughtafter species on many Slovenian Rivers.

It is highly likley that you have heard of the GIANT Mongolian Taimen (Hucho Taimen), but you may not recognize this close relative, the Danubian Salmon (Hucho Hucho). This giant predator lives in many of the larger rivers and feeds primarily on smaller fish species. An increadible sport fish! learn more about our Hucho Hucho conservation efforts

Rainbow Trout are not naitive to Slovenia, but under the watchful eye of fisheries management, they are thriving in many Slovenian Rivers. While the fish are not wild, its amazing how quickly they adapt to the rivers. The fish are plenteful and grow to tremendous size! It is possible to hook one of the largest trout of your life on the Soca, Sava Bohinka and Krka. The largest fish landed to date was just under twenty seven inches and we've hooked and lost fish in the 30 inch range.
