Meet Alfonso: Banker Turned Fly Fishing Guide
What makes Spain Trout Fishing so unique is the story behind it. The company was founded by Alfonso, a lifelong angler who left a high-powered career at BBVA, Spain’s largest bank, to follow his dream: sharing the magic of trout fishing in Spain with the world.
Alfonso’s passion, professionalism, and deep local knowledge have earned him a reputation as one of the top fly fishing guides in Spain. He personally guides many of the trips, offering not just technical expertise, but also genuine hospitality and a deep respect for nature.
“Leaving the corporate world wasn’t easy,” says Alfonso, “but every time I see a client’s face light up as they hook a wild Spanish trout, I know I made the right choice.”
Where We Fish: The Best Trout Waters in Spain
Spain’s geography offers an incredible variety of trout habitats — from crystal-clear mountain rivers to spring-fed limestone streams. Here are just a few of the regions we explore:
🏞️ Northern Spain – León, Asturias & Cantabria
Some of the oldest fly fishing traditions in Europe come from northern Spain. The Picos de Europa Mountains are home to wild brown trout in stunning, untouched rivers. This region offers classic small-stream fishing surrounded by dramatic landscapes and charming mountain villages.
🐟 Central Spain – Castilla y León
This is where Spanish fly fishing was born. Rivers like the Órbigo, Porma, and Esla are famous for their prolific hatches, technical dry fly action, and healthy trout populations. The historical towns nearby add a unique cultural touch to your fishing adventure.
🏔️ The Pyrenees – Aragón & Catalonia
For those seeking high-altitude adventure, the Spanish Pyrenees deliver. Crystal-clear alpine streams, glacial lakes, and incredible scenery await. In summer, you’ll find solitude, rising trout, and the kind of peace only the mountains can offer.
