Unac

ABOUT UNAC |

A tributary of Una, Unac runs through the national park and joins Una in Martin Brod. The river is well-structured and used to be famous for its huge grayling. However, last two years Unac was attacked by big group of cormorants and majority of grayling are gone. Due to the fishing farm nearby, Unac is populated mostly with trout which for years had escaped the farm and are to be found in big numbers. In 2018, few huge rainbow trout exceeding 70cm in size were caught at Unac. Fishing is easy and guests can expect to catch a lot of trout between 25 and 40cm. The width of river is from 15 to 25m, easily wadable throughout its flow.

Una (Hucho Part)

ABOUT UNA |

Una belongs to the most beautiful rivers in Europe and is considered a pearl of Balkans. The mighty river arises in the National Park at the border area between Bosnia and Croatia. On its run, Una absorbs the waters of rivers Krka and Unac, and flows northly as a mighty river. Below Bihac, Una is rather deep, and in many places graylings and Danube Salmon are difficult to reach from the shore because the river has an immense dynamism. It is fast and often beyond 10 m deep. So, the best way to fish Una in and below the canyon is by boat. Fishing the river from the very narrow and breakable looking boats of the locals is possible, however it doesn't suit everyone. Many fishermen did not feel really safe while fishing and drifting with these unsafe floating devices, therefore the new Una Riverside Lodge that will open in March 2019 will address that by providing excellent boats for drifting the river and fishing the most famous pools of Una river. It is worth mentioning that the stretch from Martin Brod to Kulen Vakuf offers 25km of perfect flyfishing water, rich in trout and grayling, with wading being possible throughout its flow. In 2018, many huge trout between 70 to 85cm were caught in the flyfishing stretch. The width of Una goes from 20 to 60m.
