Dear readers,
My previous seasons didn't start as I had planned. Way too much blanking in rainy weather and changing temperatures. Last autumn I chatted with a Prologic team member David Primozic, and he invited me to Slovenia. It was hard to resist, as I had already planned to go fishing abroad. So we discussed further and decided that we will fish lake Smartinsko. To make things easier, we discussed that I travel by plane and take only the essentials with me. No hassle with rods, bivvies, or driving through Europe. Just a direct flight from Helsinki to Ljubljana. And David had the small task of bringing a LOT of stuff to the lake.

Seeing green forests and snow-topped mountains at the same time was something new for me. Already in the plane I knew I was going to love this country and its nature. After a nice flight David picked me up from the airport. An hours drive to the lake and we were ready to start fishing. It was already quite late when we arrived, so we got the rods out and started our waiting game. The only bad thing was that we woke up the next morning, and that means we didn't get any runs during the first night. I wasn't nervous at all, because I knew our spot wasn't fished for a longer time, and it always takes some time to get the fish feeding on your spot.
No carp yet, so I lied in the blog title. Maybe the second part will have more fish in it... :) (Sorry about the crappy photos, they were taken with my Sony POS phone.)
