Upcoming season 2014!

So the season 2014 is just around the corner. Some carpers in the southern Europe have enjoyed good carp fishing already. But here we'll get rid of the ice cover within a few weeks. Anyway my aims for the next season are relatively modest. Fishing, after all, is about enjoying what you do. My years of competitive angling have already insured me that I know how to catch fish and I don't have to prove anything to anyone. The only thing I am hoping for is some kind of a discovery. Should it be a new idea, a big fish that shouldn't have been in this lake, or just a new perspective on fishing in general. This year I am also going carping abroad, so you'll see something about that on my blog later on.

Almost forgot about this one. Absolutely a beautiful film by Alliancepeche. It's about the freedom in fishing (I think). Just watch it. http://vimeo.com/87580260 

This was such a beautiful fish from 2011. Or IS a beatiful fish to be exact... Swimming free in a non-commercial lake!

Prologic Senzora 13 Bite Alarms Tested

Dear readers, 

As I wrote in my hands-on review about the Prologic Senzora 13, no final judgement can be made about an alarm system just testing it for a one session (or just in your living room). So, making a thorough test takes easily a complete season. I don't actually know how many sessions I did, but the alarms were tested in varying conditions, from 30°C to - 2°C (rain etc. included). My set of 4+1 was in use in all of the sessions, so I got a good picture how the alarms behave. To put it is short: they worked just fine.

So no fuss, no problems, and the alarms produced reliable bite detection. That's all I want of my alarm set. I think I will stick to this set for a longer time.

Lucky summer days and mornings.
