Overview

The Tolminka is the Soča Valley in miniature: a compact, very cold tributary that cuts through the Tolmin gorges before meeting the Soča at the town that gives it its name. RD Tolmin, the fishing association managing this district, lists it among its fly-only waters — marble trout hold here, and the reach near Tolmin carries a strong grayling population.
