Kevin Casellini

My passion for fishing in rivers and alpine ponds began as a child. Over the years I have become passionate about spinning fishing in rivers and fishing with different techniques in alpine ponds. I have a Master's degree in Geosciences and Environment, the topic of my thesis work could only be the ecology of alpine ponds and the management of fishing in these fantastic environments. My passion for fishing and for the Canton Ticino region prompted me to promote this activity as a fishing guide.

Federica Tantardini

My name is Federica Tantardini, I'm 28 years old. I live in Arogno and work as a kindergarten teacher. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking in the mountains, cycling, and drawing. I'm a curious person and I love spending time in nature. When I met Kevin, I used to follow him on his fishing days, which sparked my interest, and I started fishing myself. I love the alpine lakes and rivers of the Canton Ticino. We can't wait to accompany you in exploring our region through fishing.

Matteo Sansossio

My name is Matteo and I’m 23. I’m from Arogno but I’m actually doing a bachelor in Forestry in Bern, specifically about mountain forests and natural hazards. I spend most of my time in the nature and overall in mountain regions, both to study, work but also in my free time. I do quite a lot of different sport you can do in Ticino: hiking, alpinism, climbing, biking, skiing, paragliding and of course hunting and fishing. I started fishing as I was 3 years old with my father and I fish pretty much everywhere in freshwaters: lakes, rivers, but what I like the most are alpine lakes. For me our small and remote alpine lakes are the only place where you can really feel yourself in touch with the wilderness of the alpine backcountry.
