When considering your next fly fishing trip, be that salt or freshwater, there is a chance that you consider just a small range compared to what is available. In trout fishing the mind often wanders off to the New Zealand back country, the gorges of Argentina or the open plains of the American West but there is a venue you may have overlooked; Spain, and in particular the Spanish Pyrenees.
The southern slopes of the Pyrenees are home to 17 rivers, 118 tributaries and around 2,500 lakes ensuring a diverse range of scenarios fishing for brown trout, the occasional rainbow, brook trout and European barbel. The fishing season runs from March through to November and anglers and their travel companions will enjoy the unspoiled nature while getting immersed in Spain’s culture, gastronomic richness, and old-world hospitality.
