Danes na Soči spet čarobni dan! Kapitalni lipan 48 cm na suho muho #16 (imitacija majske muhe). Borba kot iz učbenika, vsaka tresenje repa je bilo vredno vsake ure vezanja muh doma. Seveda takoj spuščen nazaj v tok – naj raste še naprej za naslednje generacije. Hvala Soči za še en nepozaben trenutek! 🪰💚 #catchandrelease #mušičarenje #Soča #lipan

Brief description

The European Grayling is a freshwater salmonid native to cold, clean rivers and lakes across Europe. Known for its striking sail-like dorsal fin and subtle iridescent coloration, it prefers well-oxygenated waters and feeds on insects, crustaceans, and small fish. It is a popular fly-fishing target and is protected in parts of its range due to habitat sensitivity and declining populations.
