About me
Who am I
My name is André Gomes, and I’m originally from Covilhã, Portugal. From an early age, I developed a deep connection with nature, especially aquatic environments.
I began fishing at the age of 13, exploring various techniques and styles.
Over time, I discovered fly fishing—an approach that truly captivated me. Today, it’s the only way I fish.
For over seven years, I’ve been competing in fly fishing at a national and international level. I’ve had the honor of representing Portugal on three national teams, participating in two European Championships and one World Championship. Fly fishing is not just a passion for me—it’s a way of life.

These experiences have allowed me to develop strong skills in event planning, communication, stakeholder engagement, and logistics.
