Ciao! This is the 29th page of my booklet ”Theo and Joe, a possible adventure” which I wrote some years ago, aiming to increase knowledge of fly fishing and respect for nature among young people. Now it is available (free of charge) also in English and shall be available – page after page – until completion.
I give much importance to knowledge, mostly among teenagers, because they are our future, those to whom we are going to deliver the world which we received from our ancestors. The booklet has beed distributed in Italy to many fly angling clubs and primary schools and has been well accepted.
I hope it will have the same success in other countries, thanks to the English version. Those who are interested in receiving all the pages (.pdf), are requested to fill in the form. The .pdf file will be sent to the given email addresses free of charge.

I was born in Milan some half a century ago and after many years spent visiting most rivers and lakes of North Italy, I moved to the Centre – not far from Rome – where I found a real paradise as far as flyfishing is concerned.
I have been fishing since the very green years of my life and have switched to flyfishing in 1977. The dry fly is – like most of us – my favorite but I think that a complete flyangler should have a deep knowledge of all the techniques offered by his tackle (given that the “spirit” of fly angling is not denaturalized). Environment improving and respect are also very important to me.
I have fished most European rivers (Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, England, Ireland, ex-Yugoslavia, Greece, Romania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Far East, New Zealand…). As for Italy, there are few rivers I have not visited
I do not consider fishing as a sport but as a style of life, where respect for the fish and environmental nature is at the top of the activity. While respecting other anglers’ points of view, I support catch&release also in free waters.
I have translated quite a number of flyfishing books into Italian and am fond of history and philosophy.
