Idrijca

The Idrijca River has a distinct karst character with its characteristic greenish color and is considered one of the most interesting rivers for fly fishing in Europe.

The Idrijca enters the Tolmin fishing district at the village of Stopnik. Up to Trebuša, it flows between banks lined with trees down to the water, through deep pools and over fast rapids and riffles.

At Trebuša, the flow becomes somewhat calmer, and smaller gravel bars appear. The pools remain deep and long, especially near Slap ob Idrijci, while the riffles and rapids are slower and more gentle. At Bača pri Modreju, it flows into the reservoir behind the Doblar Hydroelectric Plant and then merges with the Soča at Most na Soči.

The entire Idrijca fishing section is 16.2 kilometers long and is open to fishing. In the Idrijca, you can find all fish species present in the Tolmin fishing district: all trout species, including large marble trout, as well as grayling, bullhead, chub, barbel, Italian barbel, spirlin, gudgeon, and also white-clawed crayfish.
