A General introduction about me and flyfishing in liptov.
It is about roots. It is about memories, a vision, and a passion. Since ever in my memories, there is this river and this creek. Fascination out of the nature of the living nature of water and its surrounding. The scenes itself may serve enough itself by viewing the beautifulness and perfection of nature.
How did it come? I am not sure about where it comes from. It may be the absence of itself in the European environment where original nature is rare in presence. It may be also kind of memories of good times in the past somehow coexistent self-confirming positive vibes becoming the light in the dark, something to be or become a reason for the effort at all. The confirmation of the daydreams becoming one with the clear fresh existing genuine original nature and having the please to be kind of active part of the scenery is an extraordinary pleasure for me. Satisfaction and Recharge of energy in one. Time passes by in short
Again – How did it come? There has been the connection since ever, somehow, dad who told me about his youth fishing activity which instantly jumped over to me to be continued until today. It was a summer holiday with my cousin Peter in Slovakia, we were around ten years old when it all begun: an old wise fishermen from my root village gave us hooks, line, and few split shots and showed us how to bind the required knots. So it all begun, the worms have never been so insecure from us then these days. Otherwise and a little bit later when we were at the age of 12 my uncle as a hunter&fisherman told us and lead us to become fishermen.
Due to my absence because of living in Germany I had to deal with the situation at my place. We have the river Elbe as the dominant water. Besides, there are small creeks in the near of 50km. More interesting creeks and river sections at 100km. Known productive water comparable to my root rivers are at around 200km away. Nothing to deal with in the youth since I am the only fisherman in my closest family living in Germany it felt like pioneering the way to get all required actions done to get a license in Germany. I do not think that it was difficult, it is more about the actual decision to do it. I mean the Elbe, nothing to be compared with Váh…
Fortunately, I kept on going with the flyrod. Fortunately, I met Lukás from Ivachnova. We have a comparable understanding of joy which leads to a good time anytime we plan a trip or expedition together. Since we both have a good understanding and experience in gastronomy and the will to have a great experience together with guests a joyful time is always on load. With the understanding of fishermen's requirements and the hospitality of a Slavic country we do enjoy the situation ourself and keep on improving ourself and the surrounding which always leads to the awesome guest experience. This is where you experience the feeling of doing things correctly when your guest returns the positive vibe and you can enjoy together instead of the feeling of actual service. It is more about respect and friendship then service. I think this is the key to a successful relationship with a guest.
