Upper Dunajec river

Dunajec river beginning takes place in Nowy Targ from the connection of two rivers – Bialy (white) Dunajec and Czarny (black) Dunajec. Upper part of Dunajec is between this place and the estuary in a Czorsztyn dam lake. In upper Dunajec you can catch more various fish species than in Bialy and Czarny Dunajec where trouts and graylings dominate. In the upper Dunajec besides trout and grayling you can also catch barbel, chub, nase (sneep) and the dream of fishermans called ,,queen of Dunajec”- huchen. The nature of the river gives huge opportunities to try every fly fishing method. Doesn’t matter if you are an advanced angler or beginner, at upper Dunajec everyone will find a perfect place for himself.

Dunajec special zone

Special sector (upper) at Dunajec river between Krościenko and Tylmanowa villages is a large river with large fishes. Sector’s leaseholder cares for regular restocking and monitoring of the river so every fisherman who will come here has a chance to catch life’s record fish. This part of the river is especially known for big trouts, graylings and danube salmons but also you can catch there barbels , chubs or nases. This fishery is a frequent destination of our fishing trips, mainly with experience fishermans who can expect unforgettable emotions. Probably the best polish river for nymph fishing!
