Hit the road Jake: New city, new luck (2)
A look into the landing net, your knees shake, then a scream of joy across the river. Secretly I was hoping for a fish like that. Of course not a giant for the German quarry lake conditions, but th...
Hit the road Jake: New city, new luck
Wind, waves, a slightly salty taste on the tongue. With every step I sink slightly into the fine sand. The brackish water washes coolly around my bare feet. I can't see the ground, even though ...
The dream spot Bianca and I spent a week in a wonderful place far away from any civilization. We were standing directly on a large headland of a several hundred hectare reservoir in the Algarve of ...
Guido Richard: A premiere in Saint Cassien (2)

The time has come When I finished my session at Teufelssee almost a week and a half ago, it was already clear what was coming next. For over 2 months I had been in contact with a lovely young woman...

First of all, arrive... When I arrived at “Lac du Diable” almost 2 weeks ago and met up with my buddy Aurelien and his buddy Guilhem, I didn't really feel like fishing. The weather didn't s...

Vantastic Lukas: Late summer in southern France
Waiting time - fishing time Together with my friend Sébastien we went to the doctor he trusted at the beginning of last week. The reason for my symptoms was then to be examined in a laboratory. So ...

The last night at the “feel-good spot” When I wrote the last blog at my “feel-good spot” right on the lake in a fantastic location, I had already stayed there for 9 days. Not really successful with...
Lucas in Search of Magic: The Carp from the Forgotten Valley Part 1
Last year, during my summer trip, I decided to spend a few days in a valley to escape the high temperatures in the south of France. Always the same topo, an endless check of Google Maps with the re...

Bathers and campers everywhere There was just too much going on at the waters in the region at my friend Sebastien's place at the moment... I didn't feel like mingling with the crowd of bat...
