My wife Nadica and me are professional fly tiers since 1991, tying
instructors, fly fishermen and photographers .We are known throughout the
world for our super realistic flies, confirmed by winning
43 prizes on major International competitions in Norway, Slovenia,
Germany , Ireland. We participate in 7 books with our own fly patterns.
Our articles have been published in international magazines. We
demonstrate our original tying solutions at international tying shows. Our
flies are proved on many waters all over Europe.
I tied my first fly on age of 12 only by my hands, than I didn't know that there are tools, except scissors and needle. In the same time I started with fly-fishing on one mountain creek where my grand parents have a house. Today I can still tie some flies without use of vice and I demonstrate this at fly-tying shows. During studies of electrical engineering, my enthusiasm for fly tying became very serious.
In 1991 I met Nadica and we found out
that both of us like the nature and we are amazed of water insects. Our
big passion is macrophotography. We take photos mostly of insects which are
food for the trouts, and this close observing helps us a lot in creating
their imitations. Inspired by naturals ,we are trying to improve the
limits of realism at fishing flies.
Super realistic category is real challenge to represent your own tying
skills, knowledge of the insects, experience, and skillfulness. All this
with combination of selected materials and the use of the best quality
hooks are the source of finest quality flies.
Although Nadica is graduated ecconomist,
her great talent for art was successfully transferred in to fly-tying. Today she
is one of the best creators which is proved with numerous prizes from
different international jurys, and I'm glad that she is my partner not my
competitor.
We offer you finest quality flies, created and tied personally by us, tied on best quality hooks with high selected materials. Our flies are proven as extremely durable and successful on many different waters worldwide.
