2018 Martin Droz Seminars
Posted on June 12, 2018 Under General news
We are delighted to announce that the world's greatest competition fly fisherman, Martin Droz, will be coming to Australia in November 2018 to host numerous fly fishing seminars.
These seminars will concentrate on the important factors that enabled the Czech Republic to become the world’s best fly fishing nation. Martin will cover things such as, reading the water, choosing the correct techniques, technique execution, flies and fly tying along with many more important factors that help anglers catch more fish. From European nymphing to dry fly and wet fly fishing, Martin covers it all.
The seminars involve theory lessons as well as practical sessions and are adapted to suit the individual needs, skills and requests of each member of the group.
Who is Martin Droz?
Martin has won a staggering thirteen international medals between 2004 and 2014!
He has individually won:
1st place World Championships 2008
2nd place World Championships 2013
3rd place World Championships 2006
1st place European Championships 2012
3rd place European Championships 2014
Martin has also won four team World Championship gold medals, two silvers and one bronze along with three other European team gold medals!
Martin's first world championships was in Australia in 1999 and he has won multiple Czech titles and medals on several occasions in his home country. His teaching and guiding experience extends throughout many European countries and across the globe. Amongst his peers there is no argument that he is the best in his field.
Last year, Martin was employed by Fly Fish Australia to travel with our team to the world championships in Slovakia as our technical advisor. His contribution was immeasurable and helped bring about our best ever result on mainland Europe. The skill level of Australian competitors has gone through the roof since Martin started imparting his knowledge on us. Martin will once again be travelling to this years world championships (Italy) with our world team in September.
