If you are visiting Cinque Terre, you should seriously think about fly fishing for Trout and other native species in our pristine backcountry waters. Or, in the appropriate season, experience saltwater flyfishing in some of the most stunning sceneries of the Mediterranean.

I am Gianluigi, a registered fly fishing guide member of the Italian Professional Fishing Guide Association (AIGUPP) based in Monterosso al Mare, in the heart of Cinque Terre National Park. I have over 35 years of fishing experience and depending on your preference, age, and fitness I can offer you half or full-day excursions in a wide range of waters, from wild and remote creeks in search of native Mediterranean Trout to more accessible ‘club’ river sections holding good sized browns and rainbows.

During the months of August and September, I guide in saltwater targeting juvenile Mahi Mahi, False Albacore, and Frigate Tunas off the Cinque Terre coast, and in the winter months, I have access to very good private waters populated with large and powerful Rainbow Trout.

I will take care of all logistics including national fishing license, daily fishing tickets where required, and pick up/drop off off at your hotel.

I provide good quality rods and reels and a broad selection of local flies. Waders/boots are also available upon request

My half-day excursions include snacks/drinks, and a box lunch comes with the full day (option to eat in the country restaurant at extra cost).

Any time of the year, just drop me a line and I will do my best to give you an unforgettable fishing experience!

Half Day Trip – Trout Fishing

Best possible experience, would recommend to everyone

VERIFIED

I can’t say enough about our fishing trip with Gianluigi. We caught 2 trout and had several more opportunities to get some on the line, but the fish were getting lazy! Gianluigi provided us with the appropriate gear, and we got to walk along a beautiful crystal river in a remote, nontouristy town in Italy. This is something we would have NEVER been able to achieve without the local connection and fishing wisdom of Gianluigi. The car he picked us up in was extremely comfortable, and he was a great guy to talk to about fishing, travel, and Italia. Thank you so much Gianluigi, for this experience we will never forget. Reno’s first trout!

Hi Amber, thank you so much for your kind words. Indeed it was a great pleasure to fish and chat with you and Reno. His happiness when he landed his first trout is the biggest reward for me. Hope to see you again! Gianluigi

Full Day Trip – Trout Fishing

One of the best adventures in my life

VERIFIED

If you happen to be around Cinque Terre, then I would highly recommend you to go on a fly fishing adventure with Gianluigi. He took me and my girlfriend to some very beautiful river, taught many invaluable lessons and motivated to give a second try to fly fishing in my home country. As a professional guide he made sure we do not leave without a catch and assisted every step of the way. As a person, Ginaluigi is kind, easy-going and a very nice person to be around. Me and my girlfriend will remember this magnificent time spent with Gianluigi for a long time! :)
