Hi everyone!

I'm Matteo from Venice, Italy.

I only started spey fishing a few years ago, and so far I've only been able to travel for a few days to some beautiful places like Sweden, Scotland, and Ireland.

I hope to find valuable allies in this forum to continue learning this magnificent technique and finally land my first salmon!

Thank you, and have a great day,
M.

Welcome, Matteo!

I happen to be making my first visit to Venice currently. You live in a delightful part of the world!

Again, welcome to SpeyPages!

Ciao Matteo and benvenuto! I'm Canadian, but my wife's family is from Veneto, so I often use a spey rod for Marble Trout in the Brenta and Piave Rivers during our frequent visits there. It's great casting practice for steelhead and Atlantic salmon and sometimes the marmorata you catch can be as big as steelhead. You should try it if you haven't already. Enjoy the journey!

Hi Larry,

thanks for the suggestion! I do try sometimes, but I don't often manage to hook anything interesting. Mostly, I go to keep in practice. If you are passing through this area next season, let me know and perhaps we can arrange to fish together! Keep in touch! Regards. M.
