Slow going — pick your moments
River temperature is the limiting factor today, not the flow. Fish dawn or dusk if you go at all, and handle everything with extra care.

About this water

A small, fly-only Pohorje stream out of Ruše — acidic-tending, wooded, and about as far from the limestone west as Slovenian trout fishing gets. Brown trout and grayling with some rainbow. Not a destination water on its own, but a genuine change of character worth having in the pack.
