My „BIG“ Autumn, part I
from Stijn Praet

Autumn, as we all know the most interesting period of the year to go chasing carp. Carp need to feed themselves to get through the winter. I hate this time of the year. When I see the farmers around my house, cutting off their fields with corn, I get depressed. For me it means winter is coming pretty soon. The colours of the leaves are changing, to fall down and get absorbed by the earth. Winter is too long in Belgium. And therefore my autumn never ends. I keep on fishing here till mid december. Then I go fishing in the south. No time to loose when you realise your life will be 10 times too short for all the things you want to do.

Carpfishing is freedom!

A few months ago I fished some short instant sessions on smaller lakes in my region. A lot of carp came out. Some evenings produced up to 14 fish in 4 hours! Nice for a while, but with carp up to 13kg cool but not really satisfying – I had a BIG autumn fish in my mind.

Time for a change!
Togheter with Jurgen Lievens and Glenn Labie, 2 Belgian IB members, we decided to go fishing seriously on a 30ha public lake in our region. This lake is not easy and pressured due the whole year. A lot of different depths and hot spots doesn’t make things easier. Respecting the anglers that are already feeding and fishing there eather.

Jurgen and Glenn made several years ago a map of the water with the “sidescan” technology. So that made it a lot easier to find the right spots. A plan was made. We started feeding every day on 4 different plateaus, with a depth of 6,5m.

As boats are not allowed on the lake, we need to feed with the baitboat on a long distance. So feeding every day is a huge job after a nice walk (you can’t reach it by car) trough the park. We decided to feed 2-3kg of boilies on each plateau. A mixture of 24mm Monster-Liver boilies and 24mm Fish boilies. When we fish we pimp our boilies with the famous Carptrack inP and Carptrack inL.

And the carp love it!

Breams can be a big plague on this lake, but I believe that they send a good signal to the carp. I remember Jurgen catching a bream, putting the rod back in, to get a nice carp 5 minutes later. It is weard but it seems that we always catch fish of a higher layer, or older fish that doesn’t come out often.
During the last weeks we never blanked!
Oeps! I did! I caught 3 nights on a row the breams of my life! I am happy to see my mates catching carp. I don’t mind! 🙂

My beautiful girls!

But last night, it was time for a small revenge!
I changed my lines completely. Put the spools with fluorocarbon mainline on the reels. I wanted to fish a bit more discretely with slack lines. A Carp’R’Us Fluorocarbon Gizmo speed leader is the base of my last meter. The bottom is clean and hard, so I like to use an inline lead, which fits perfectly over the gizmo swivel. Withought having it to fixed, as the lead must go over the swivel when a carp shakes his head. My rigs, I keep them simple but effective. A combi rig, composed with a fluorocarbon stiff rig and 5 cm of Smooth Braid is one of my favorits. A big Continental snag hook (I don’t like small hooks!) and of course a Mouthsnagger Shorty. What I always use is a Quick Hair Stop. These boiliesstopper stays fixed on the hair. Big advantage when you have to change your hookbait during the night, with cold or wet fingers. Because there are a lot of “whitefish” attacking our hookbaits, I wrap them with the Carp’R’Us rapit protection.

No surprises of finding a naked hair in the morning!

I also like using Half‘n halfs as a hookbait. Besides the color (half fluoro/half basemix) carp sucks them in very easy. They are super good balanced and take away the weight of the hook.

Around 3 o’clock in the morning, one of my Carpsounder ROC’s wakes me up. A few beeps. “No not again a f*cking bream”! I put on my waders and walk to my rod pod. Suddenly the fish starts to take line, like in slowmotion. I grap the Temptation rod and feel a good weight on the other side of the line. The fish swims in my direction. But I’m not afraid for a battle close to the bank. These rod’s have an amazing testcurve, good and forgivable at all ranges.

This is another picture which shows you the testcurve!

After 10 minutes playing the fish 20m from the bank, it’s time to net the fish. Full moon and I didn’t want to scare the fish with my head torche on. I pull the landing net closer to me and lift it. What a surprise, what a carp! It’s a big one!!!

The scale stops at 26kg. Yes!!!!

I just caught the biggest fish of the lake, and a new Belgian PB mirror!
The “Hoge Staart” or “Big Tail” in English is his name. Why? Watch the size of his tails! They are huge!

I put the fish in the IB Carpsack, and give it a safe place in deeper water.

Sitting on my bedchair, and staring at the full moon I say to myself: “I love autumn”!

A few hours later I call Jurgen:
“ Jurgen can you come over to the lake please? And take some beers with you. It’s celebration time”!

After the pictures we raise our bottles. Chears to friendship, big carp and the “Imperial feeling”!!!

PART 4: CARPFISHING AT A BUILDING SITE – The show must go on!
from Nejc Prša

Hi dear iBlog readers,
it’s me after a long time. I have been very busy in the latest few months, but anyway I have found some time to fish the best gravel pit in the world (as I like to say). In July and August I was doing my student job, so I was fishing only overnighters. In that time, I really found out how hard and cruel that gravel pit can be. But as the autumn came, I found some more time and I spent propper some time at the water hoping to add another big one into this years collection. And I am proud to say, that I did it! And of course, big thanks to Imperial Baits once more!

Let the pictures tell more about my adventures!

When I was fishing overnighters, I was in hurry to get the rods in before the dark. That resulted with the mess on the picture.

Ready mades, top choice for quick overnighters without pre-baiting! Banana was doing the damage!

Trap is set … now sit back and wait!

I was lucky enough to caught what I think is the smallest carp in the lake.

Like the saying goes: Carp, big or small, I love them all 😛

Let’s dry shit out and get to work.

When fishing quick overnighters I was using the marker rod instead of iBoat, just to be sat as quick as possible.

Feeding strategy was a key! IB Elite Strawberry (on the picture) did the job like expected!

Nowhere without Amino complex!

Translation: Swimming in the gravel pit is forbidden!

THE BIG BERTHA AGAIN 😎

Slackline 😉

Feeding the wild ducks can be awesome.

Nothing but Authenthics, oldshool all the way 😀

Drying the net can only mean one thing…

One of the finest…

…treasures from the depths.

I asked him to make me a place to fish and he kindly did it!
Thank you once more my friend!

Having some fun 😀

Waiting game begins!

Quaility!

Home rolled explosiv stickmix, no.1 choice!

The trinity! Liquid Amino, inP and Amino Complex Liquid

These 2 can really be pain in the ass…

Big Bertha, you filthy animal …

Multirange – gotta love them!

Piggy, are u hungry again?

Let’s find some spots.

iBoat 160 Small enough and big enough, like I love to say… Who have ever used it will understand 😉

IB white V-pop was the one…

P E R F E C T

No words needed! Just another perfection!

Shock them!

Sense of life!

zzzzzzz zzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzz

Fu*k off dude! I’m sure that was what he tought about.

My grandparents paid me a visit as well. Not bad at all 😛

Every summer has an ending… So did this summer have one!

Home rolled IB Worm Up and IB Fish with black pepper! Thanks Damir and Luka 😉

Worm Up

And so the autumn came…

Let’s take a look at the award … I heared it’s big one…

Restless old carp lady.
