EXCELLENT Based on 4 reviews Posted on Google Tobias SchädelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great stay in Spain thanks to the good guiding from Spain Fly Fishing Guides. Our guide had a very good knowledge of the waters and was showing us some really beautifuly spots that we fished. The guide was super friendly and we had a very good time together. A little downer were the very tough fishing conditions just because the time of our visit was very early in the year and it is very hard to fish as the fish are not very active. Nevertheless we found some cool spots where we could even catch some trout on the dry fly. Thanks a lot to the great organisation and the whole stay.Posted on Google Jose MartinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. THE BEST FLY FISHING GUIDES IN SPAIN A few days ago, my cousins visited from New York, and we made the decision to book a three-day fly fishing excursion in the Pyrenees. Our guide, Marc, proved to be an exceptional choice. His intimate knowledge of the rivers was unparalleled, making it effortless for him to spot the elusive trout. Moreover, he adeptly assisted us in navigating the river safely. Marc generously provided us with waders and fly rods, and during our midday break, he treated us to a delectable meal featuring local products paired with excellent wine. Throughout our adventure, we each managed to reel in a significant number of wild trout. The picturesque scenery and pristine fishing spots added to the overall charm of the experience. In the end, our fly fishing journey with Marc in the Pyrenees was nothing short of unforgettable, and we eagerly look forward to repeating this incredible experience in the future!Posted on Google Javier Andrés MartínezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. El pasado mes de junio contraté con un amigo dos jornadas guiadas de pesca en los Pirineos con Spain Fly Fishing Guides. La experiencia fué 100% recomendable. Tuve la suerte de ser el primer cliente de esta nueva compañía que le auguro un gran futuro. La jornada empezó a las 8:30 de la mañana, cuando Marc, nuestro guía de pesca nos vino a buscar por el Hotel Parador de Viella y regresamos a las 19 horas cada uno de los días. El primer día pescamos un pequeño arroyo de montaña y el segundo día realizamos una excursión a dos lagos alpinos dónde pescamos truchas y salvelinos. Cada día capturamos más de 20 peces de tamaño pequeño y mediano. Marc fue un guía de pesca con mosca excelente. Atento, paciente y con muchos conocimientos. La comida de la jornada guiada también fue fantástica, todo con productos locales y de km 0. Indicar que contacté con este maravilloso equipo gracias a las recomendaciones que nos dieron en la recepción del hotel. Volveremos el próximo año.Posted on Google David Mac MillerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. INCREDIBLE FLY FISHING EXPERIENCE & FLY FISHING GUIDES IN SPAIN Last July, I had the incredible opportunity to journey to Spain alongside my wife. During my childhood, I encountered Ernest Hemingway's novel, "The Sun Also Rises," in school. His vivid portrayals of wild trout fishing in the Pyrenees truly captivated my imagination. This dream of exploring those lands had lingered within me for years. Our fishing guide, Marc, led us to captivating locales, affording us the chance to engage in fishing for the stunning wild zebra trout—an exquisite fish indeed. Furthermore, we were fortunate to secure some brook trout from the serene mountain lakes. The entire experience, from the culinary offerings to the top-notch equipment, exemplary service, and unwavering attention, was nothing short of astounding. As my wife and I look ahead, we eagerly anticipate the prospect of returning with our children in the forthcoming years. Marc, your dedication to providing such an unforgettable experience resonates deeply with us. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for making this adventure a reality.
