The phrase "Fly Fishing"

Pesca a mosca

Great food, fantastic wines, beautiful scenery and friendly people. Add fly fishing to that, and you have reached the ultimate "La Dolce Vita".

You can come back to Italy for years in a row and still discover many new places to fly fish. The country is big, has many rivers and lakes, as well as a long shoreline.

Although figuring out what license(s) you need can be tricky, a visit to a tackle shop or getting in touch with a guide will resolve this quickly and you'll be on your way exploring the beautiful nature and incredible fly fishing.
