Emerald Paradise - The Soca
Show Notes

Do you have a river that really gets under your skin?

Laurens Bubendorfer does. It is the Soca in Slovenia. His passion for it grew and grew to the extent that he left his job and home in Austria to move next to the Soca in Slovenia.

We talk about what the Soca means to him, how they are trying to re-introduce native Marble Trout back into the river and fishing dogs.

He has also made an amazing film called Emerald Paradise that took a number of years to film to ensure it captured everything that makes this river so special for Laurens.

It was a pleasure to speak with someone who feels just like we do about fly fishing.
