CARP TEAM - Benelux |
Angling History and Achievements: I've been fishing since I was eleven years old. I started off with catching roach and pike. Not much later I got confronted with the species cold carp. After that I used to spend nearly all my free time on the banks of the local carp pits. When I was seventeen I went on my first trip to France and caught my first 40 plus carp. The year after I finished school and left for France and ended up spending over seven years in this beautiful country.
Most memorable angling moment: On one night on a gravel pit near Paris I caught 12 fish over 33lbs, including 4 forties being topped off with a 47lbs mirror. Another good memory I have is of fishing a local sandpit in Holland where I caught three fish over 40lbs in a weekend trip being topped of with a 46 lbs common.
Favourite Venues: Lac de Serrerie, Cassien, River Po (Italy), River Seine, River Marne and River Lot.
Plans for 2008 / Venues you would like to fish: I am planning to fish a couple of gravel pits next to some French rivers the year coming. I also found a nice pit close to my home containing a 50 plus mirror, so I also might have a go at that.
