The magic of alpine rivers first enchanted me in 2010 when I relocated to Zell am See for a hockey contract. The Salzach River’s pristine currents and the breathtaking lakes reignited my lifelong passion for fishing.
Roots of a Fishing Obsession
My angling journey began in childhood, shaped by my father—a Czech fly-fishing champion who competed across Europe and the world. Under his guidance, I mastered artificial flies and was instantly addicted. By my teens, I’d won local tournaments and nearly made the 2002 Junior World Championship in Scotland. Yet my hockey career, with its relentless demands, forced me to pause my true calling.
Returning to the River
After hanging up my skates, I made Zell am See my home and rediscovered fly fishing with a vengeance. For over a decade, I’ve mapped every hidden stream and lake here, designing winning fly patterns that dominate these waters.
Now, I’m sharing this expertise as a guide. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned angler, I’ll reveal secret spots, teach precision casting, and tailor tactics for alpine trout, grayling, and more. Learn to hook trophy fish while surrounded by the Alps’ most stunning backdrops.
Join me in this fly-fishing paradise—where every cast brings a new adventure. Tight lines!
