About this water

A long trout and grayling river in the Giant Mountains area, offering more than 50 km of trout and grayling fishing. One of the more substantial destination-style river systems rather than just a short club stretch. Brown trout and introduced rainbow trout in fast mountain water over granite bedrock. Good pocket water and Czech nymphing territory — consistent sport in lovely water, best in spring and autumn.
