Mr. Marco Naldi was born and lives at Minerbio, in the province of Bologna [Italy]. Fishing has always been part of his life since childhood but for the past fifteen years he has been practicing exclusively fly fishing.For some time he has been dedicating most of his free evenings to fly tying, he likes to tie a bit of everything, dry flies, wet flies and nymphs and his favorite tying is the buttonhole one, inspired by the great tyers who invented and tested them before him this method of construction.He loves dry fly and nymph fishing and in particular he prefers sight fishing in chalk streams, he practices no-kill and no longer looks for the quantity but the quality of his catches, being able to deceive a trout with his lure gives him a amazing feeling.In 2020 he participated in various contests of the magazine "La pesca mosca e spinning", a sport fishing magazine for which he writes articles on fishing and fly tying, and with which he won two first places and other podium placements.In 2021 and 2022 he also reached seventh position twice at the Slovenian Open Fly Tying Championship and took first place in the construction competition of the Grayling Trophy 2021 held in Austria.He also collaborates with two famous British brands, Fullingmill and Semperfli as a Pro Team. He owns and operates two social media channels, Facebook and Instagram, where he shares all of his activities.In the winter, taking advantage of the closure of river fishing, he dedicates himself to Rod Making, his other great passion, that is the construction of bamboo rods with which he loves to spend pleasant fishing moments.He has fished in many waters of northern and central Italy. His river par excellence is the Brenta where he has been a member of the sport fishing basin for many years, he knows the Brenta river like the back of his hand.He frequents many Italian resurgences [Chalk Streams] and often goes beyond the Italian borders, in fact Austria, Slovenia, Croatia and Poland are among his favorite fishing destinations. For some time now, fly fishing has also become his job and for this reason he has participated in the H2O fishing guide training course to expand his knowledge and his technical baggage to make them available to the people who will be with him on the river.In addition, he also attends the casting school of Claudio Carrara "Claudio Carrara Fishing School" [Italy].
