Episode 62: ROK LUSTRIK – Fly Fishing in Slovenia
Description
Slovenia is renowned for its crystal-clear rivers, stunning alpine scenery, and diverse fish species – including the iconic marble trout and the hucho hucho taimen. With so much diversity and an incredible number of rivers, Slovenia offers fly anglers what may be the best freshwater fishing in all of Europe – in an area that without question delivers some of the most beautiful natural landscapes on the continent. Slovenia’s strong conservation efforts and the protection of native species like the marble trout, taimen, and European grayling – have helped maintain and support thriving fish populations and a legitimate angling infrastructure for years. In this episode of Waypoints, host Jim Klug sits down down with Slovenian angler and outfitter Rok Lustrik – a renowned fly fishing guide and founder of Slovenia’s “Lustrik Fly Fishing.” Passionate about fishing since the age of 12, Rok turned his hobby into a profession in 2000, establishing himself as one of the first guides in Slovenia. His expertise and experience with the rivers and waters of this amazing European country are unmatched, and with his deep knowledge of the region, a well-known commitment to conservation, and a lifetime of experience fishing for trout, taimen, and grayling, there is no one more qualified to talk about the unique fishing opportunities found throughout Slovenia.
