CARP TEAM - Benelux |
Angling History and Achievements: Started carp fishing in 1995 together with my brother. Carp fishing takes 99% of my fishing time. During the years I have fished a lot of different types of lake and the river. My interests in carp fishing expanded as I joined local societies. Since 2006 I'm the president of VBK-lake Hombeek and a VBK board member and regional responsable. In the future I want to seek some unknown lakes in northern France, in a search for new achievements.
Most memorable angling moment: My capture of a 61,6lbs common in Belgium, which is a lake record. I prefer to catch nice commons so a dream came true. The conditions were very bad but the session itself was the best of 2006. I never forget the feeling when I realised the big common was in my landing net! Also my first and only thirty linear, which I caught on a big lake as a youngster, was a very pleasing moment.
