For Jan, fly fishing and fly tying is a passion and attitude to life at the same time. He spends almost every free second at the water or at the binding dock and thus has an extremely large know-how. In addition to all freshwater fish, saltwater fish are among his favorite fish.

My name is Schmid Alain. I am living in the beautiful Alpine canton of Graubünden, which is located in Switzerland. Flyfishing has been one of my great passions for 20 years and I prefer to fish all types of salmonids. I love to fish with the dry fly, but modern nymph fishing in rivers is also one of my favorites. The lake fishing for trout with different techniques, I have come to appreciate more and more in the last years and it is a great change. The use of self-tied and sometimes self-created flies is a must for me when fly fishing and I love to spend hours at my fly tying table.

Hello my name is Christian Ziegler-Kirchermeier, I am living in Bavaria. I go fishing my whole live, and over 20 years now flyfishing is a part of it. Best thing for me is sightfishing with Dry or Nymph. The moment when a big trout suck in my fly is the best moment for me. Flytying is a part from flyfishing to me, I am always happy to catch fish on my own tied flies. If you like to see some of my tying, please watch at my Facebook page or Youtube chanel

My name is Luca Barosselli, born in 1987, and I've been fishing since I was a child.I started fly fishing in 2010 and have dedicated myself entirely to this fascinating technique.I prefer to fish for grayling, using dry flies whenever possible, and nymphs otherwise.My goal is to continually improve my technique and my knowledge of the fish I'm trying to catch. That's why I always listen to more experienced anglers and dedicate as many hours as possible to fishing. For several years now, I've been able to include my son in this wonderful adventure, which makes me very happy and proud.My second passion, which has made me a true angler, is fly tying.I'm convinced that catching a fish using your own technique and your own fly is an indescribable feeling. I write about this for Italian and European magazines. I am delighted to be part of the Hurch Fly Fishing and Vision Italia team and consider them my fishing family!

I have been fly fishing since I was 12 years old. Clear Slovenian rivers are my favourite place to be spending my free time, but I also love to put myself up to a challenge and fish for saltwater species around the world. I compete in fly fishing competitions for National Team Slovenia. The fish that gives me nightmares and wet dreams is Hucho, for which I have spent a lot of days tirelessly fishing and grinding in the cold winter.

My name is Rok Hace and I am the proud owner of the Tie and Fly Team from Slovenia. I have been passionate about fly fishing and fly tying for over 15 years now and I can't imagine my life without it. What started as a hobby quickly turned into a lifestyle for me. My favourite techniques include nymphing and dry fly fishing, as well as big streamer fishing for predator fish. I am always on the lookout for new challenges and experiences, whether it's exploring new fishing spots or perfecting my fly tying skills. Speaking of fishing spots, Slovenia is a true fly fishing paradise with its crystal-clear rivers and diverse fish species. Some of my favourite fish to catch on the fly are brown trout, marble trout, pike and hucho.

I was introduced to flyfishing by my good friend and also Tie and Fly founder Rok Hace. Although I like to fish nymphs using modern style fly fishing techniques, the thing that keeps me going is fishing streamers for big fish. I love chasing Pike and Hucho, but the fish that gives me absolute pleasure is the one and only Marble trout.

I was introduced to fishing by my father at a very early age. Ever since I've been travelling the globe trying to catch as many species on the fly as possible. I'm also participating in fly fishing competitions and I've won several national titles along with some international titles. My absolute favorite is definitely saltwater fly fishing but hucho fishing is not far behind.
