Gentlemen’s Fly Fishing Day

A river never ceases to amaze. During the recent fishing trip with Claudio, we realised how the genetics of trout varies in one tiny river system immensely.

Apart from some exceptions, trout opening in Switzerland is on the 16. of March. Here are some points on how to prepare for a successful start!
