Fly fishing at the Jadro river
Embark on a Journey Where History Meets Adventure
Welcome to Dalmatian Outdoor Expeditions, where we invite you to step into a world where the thrill of fishing intertwines with the rich history of Dalmatia. Nestled in the heart of Croatia, our trips on the Jadro River offer more than just fishing, they are a gateway to experiencing the soul of the ancient cities of Solin and Split.
A River Rich in History
The Jadro River, also known as Solinčica, is not just a source of life, it's a living museum. Flowing through Solin, the site of the ancient city of Salona, and winding its way to the historic city of Split, the river is a silent witness to centuries of history. As you cast your line into its waters, you are fishing in the same river that nourished Roman settlements and inspired countless legends.
Unique Fly-Fishing Experience
Our guided fly-fishing trips are designed for both beginners and experienced anglers. Whether you opt for a serene half-day trip or an immersive full-day adventure, you'll be targeting Californian trout and the endemic soft-mouthed trout, locally known as "solinka". These trips are not just about fishing and catching; they're about embracing the catch-and-release philosophy to preserve this unique ecosystem for future generations.
Discover Dalmatian Culture
Beyond the thrill of the chase, we offer you a taste of Dalmatia. Our expeditions can include stops at local restaurants where you can savor traditional Dalmatian cuisine, a delicious blend of history and local flavors. It's an opportunity to relax, reflect on your day, and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow anglers against the backdrop of Croatia's stunning landscapes.

Fish
Rainbow (Californian) trout
The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is a species of fish. It is farmed in some places. Like species of trout, the rainbow trout is related to salmon. It is called a rainbow trout because its scales are colorful and shiny. Adult freshwater stream rainbow trout average between 0.5 and 2.5 kilograms (1 and 5 lb), while lake-dwelling and anadromous forms may reach 9 kg (20 lb). Adult fish are distinguished by a broad reddish stripe along the lateral line, from gills to the tail, which is most vivid in breeding males.

Endemic soft mouth trout
This species spawns in the early spring and is an obligatory freshwater fish. The most obvious characteristic of the Adriatic trout is an elongated snout. It also has a small and fleshy mouth, relatively large scales and high body depth. The color of the body varies between subspecies, it is mostly green with red and black dots. There are no vertical stripes that are common in brown trout of the Adriatic Sea drainages that can be found.
