Portugal, a small country in south Europe (Peninsula Ibérica) has got the most beautiful rivers in Europe, being most of them unknown by European and foreign fly-fisher’s.
Hundred kilometres of Portugal rivers (Alva, Mondego, Ceira lakes from Serra da Estrela ) all of them located at the centre of Portugal (Coimbra is the nearest town, Porto is at 115 Km and Lisbon about 215 Km).
Fly-fishing is practically unknown in Portugal but those who practise it are delighted to do it.
As Portuguese rivers have pure and clear waters all kind of fly- fishing type can be done: dry,nymph, wet, our streamer.
You’re able to do dry fishing almost all over the year.
The massive stillborn theatre and the variety of insects found in Portuguese rivers are an attractive to all European fly fisher’s.
Portugal, being a sunny country, offers attractive vacations to your companions (beaches, museums, and traditional Portuguese food).

Article write from my friend Jan Siman
about Micronymphs .
Same paterns mayfly sized 18-20#Olive, sedge Cdc grey,olive body ,16-14 and same Micronymphs small nymphs sized in 14-20, imitating very small fresh water insect mayfly nymphs, caddis larvas and scuds.
They are used via "Short Nymph" (Czech/Polish) method or via upstream nymphing using long fine leader and indicator. It is amazing, that micronymphs are very effective for trouts .Using micronymphs is very popular at French and Italian fly fishing competitions too.
