Retro Moment-Mlava River, Serbia
This photo was taken exactly 25 years ago, to a day, on July 1 1995. I was visiting Serbia for a summer, and had one of the best days fishing nymphs and dry flies on Mlava. We set our tent and I rushed to start fishing that afternoon. Only few casts with a PT nymph later, I landed a small trout. My Dad was on the bank at that moment and snapped the photo.

Retro Moment-Resava River, Serbia
Back in 1993...I was a student at Berklee College of Music (Boston, USA), and I went home, to Serbia, for the summer. Great trout fishing in Eastern Serbia: Resava River...beautiful unspoiled river gorge and wild browns! Rabbit foot emergers were the hot flies, due to abundant caddis hatches! Photos were taken on May 23 and June 26, 1993.

Mayfly Gnats Revisited
Mayfly Gnats revisited... Didn't have best of luck with Gamakatsu R10-B hooks, since they get opened by strong fish easy (and many weren't large, but 100% wild!) These are tied on Firehole Sticks 413 hooks.

Wild Brown Trout, Serbia (part II)
Few more pics from my recent trip...Streams and landscapes of Eastern Serbia. I apologize for the quality, since these were just the snapshots I took with my phone.

Wild Brown Trout, Serbia
I am back from visiting my old home streams. Here are some pics of wild browns of Eastern Serbia (Eastern Danubian variety/ancient and unique haplogroup), and the stream. Chalky water and perfectly camouflaged fish, who fight incredibly well for their small size. All were caught on large mayfly and sedge dry fly patterns. This kind of fishing requires patience and precise casts in tree-lined tunnels surrounding the small stream. The trout are overfished and wary, while the hatches are prolific and diverse. You would usually get only one or two casts before your target disappears.
