![]() I'm the owner and the leading guide of URKO Fishing Adventures, Keep Fish Wet ambassador, and Flyfish Europe Pro Guide. Additionally, I cooperate with other fishing companies such as Moonshine Rods, Living the Dream Fly Fishing and Linia.
My fly fishing addiction started quite early, at the early age of ten. My father had regularly taken me and my younger brother fly fishing on one of the best European chalk streams, the Unica. There I made my first casts and caught my first fish with a dry fly. Since then, fly fishing has always had a significant impact on my life. I cannot explain my feelings when standing by a river, pursuing trout, grayling or some other fish. Maybe it's something like visiting a church for some; it lets me connect with everything - from my life and thoughts to nature. A few years back, I also decided that fly fishing is something I want to do "professionally" for the rest of my life. As a big nature lover, conservationist and supporter of sustainable fishing, I first got involved in my local Angling Club Vrhnika, where I became a member of the environmental group and angling warden. Later I also joined the Angling Club Idrija. In 2015 I established my guiding services at URKO Fishing Adventures, where we offer and promote fantastic opportunities for fly fishing on the best rivers in Slovenia, with some unique and rare fish species such as the Marble trout and the Danube salmon (Hucho Hucho). Being a guide also allows me to promote and share my beliefs and ethics on how a modern fly fisher should act on the river and how he handles his catch to minimise its stress as much as possible. Did I mention that I also love to take photos of my fishing adventures? I'm not a professional photographer, but I get some shots right occasionally! |

He is our greatest weapon when fishing for Huchen and Pike. As a long time member, fishing guardian and vice president of the Angling Club Vrhnika, the river Ljubljanica is like a second home to him. He is an avid fisher with no fishing technique unknown to him. Loves fly fishing, but his greatest passion is fishing for Huchen.

Started fishing at a young age. Fly fishing with his father and brother gave him a lot of great memories and the love for fly fishing persists and stays strong still to this day. Loves the unspoiled nature and beauty of Slovenian rivers and the intimacy one can achieve while casting a fly. Always in a good mood and happy to help people make their own "memories of a life time".
