Guias de Pesca – A Mosca Cantabria: Spain’s Premier Fly Fishing Experience
A Mosca Cantabria was born out of a deep passion for fly fishing and the desire to immerse anglers in the unparalleled sensations it offers. Our mission is to explore the most pristine and biodiverse rivers in Spain, where anglers can connect with the natural inhabitants of these waters—from the agile mountain trout to the elusive migratory sea trout (reos) of the Cantabrian Sea.
Picos de Europa & the Cantabrian Mountains: A Fly Fisher’s Paradise
Our expeditions span over 4,000 km of rivers and streams within Spain’s most breathtaking protected areas, including Picos de Europa National Park (a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve) and the Cantabrian Mountains. These ecosystems are scientifically recognized for their high biodiversity—over 70% of Spain’s native freshwater fish species are found here (Source: Spanish Ministry for Ecological Transition).
Key highlights of our fishing grounds:
- Seasonal snowmelt dynamics create ideal conditions for trout, with water temperatures ranging between 10–16°C in peak season (European Environmental Agency, 2022).
- The Cares, Deva, and Sella rivers are renowned for their wild brown trout populations, with catch rates exceeding 85% in optimal months (Asturian Fisheries Board, 2023).
- The migratory sea trout (reos) in the Cantabrian basin have seen a 20% population increase due to conservation efforts (Cantabrian Fisheries Report, 2021).

Target Species: Spain’s Wild Trout Diversity
We specialize in fly fishing for all four native Spanish trout species, each with distinct behaviors and habitats:
- Douro Trout (Salmo trutta fario) – Thrives in fast-flowing mountain streams.
- Atlantic Trout (Salmo trutta) – Known for its aggressive strikes in colder waters.
- Mediterranean Trout (Salmo cettii) – A rare subspecies with unique genetic markers (Journal of Fish Biology, 2020).
- Migratory Sea Trout (Salmo trutta trutta or Reo) – Prized for its size (averaging 50–70 cm) and silver-blue hue.
