igarpusztai_pontyok_nyomában At the celebration day of work, I went to my favorite fishing lake, to Fehérvárcsurgó. The whole lake’s water surface is around 140 hectare depending on the actual level of the water. This lake owns really beautiful fishes, easy to catch catfish (the lake is really famous about its population), walleye, great carps and all type of silverfish. Today, I wanted to catch these small species, to spend some great hours here. The ...

igarpusztai_pontyok_nyomában In the middle of June, the Summer arrived. The temperature went upper and upper. I was waiting the weekend very much! After the long and boring Winter brake and after the windy, rainy spring days, at last I don’t need a raincoat! Fishes likes this weather as well and eats more and are less cautious, the takes are aggressive, and runs with the hook like an express train, until a skillful angler stops them for a picture. No ...

igarpusztai_pontyok_nyomában I am sure that all of us were in the same situation, we were sitting on the bank, watching the tip and nothing happened. Sometimes it looks like we can’t drop enough groundbait into the water, and all the bait works like pieces of rock. So, we can’t catch anything, except flu. Some stands up and go home saying “fishes doesn’t eats today”. But the truth is that fishes doesn’t eats what and where we give them to eat. In ...

The warm weather came in the early March in this year. A lot of anglers was went to the lakes, when the ice was gone. All of us were excited by the warm winds. Nature just awake from the long sleep of winter. I started to think about the voice of the waves, the platter of the jumping fishes and the smell of the bank. I felt clearly that Nature calling me, it was a feeling which can’t be compared to anything. This is the dawn of the seasons. The bank is bare at this moment, ...

Now we are at the second part of the articles dedicated to feeder rigs. In this part we focus on the rigs used for carp fishing. While I try to describe two all-around rigs in the first article. These rigs was developed to meet the requirement of carp fishing. Using it we can offer our bait where they catch and how they can accept it. These riggs needs to be casted easily, has to be very durable while still keep them sensitive and of course hard to notice by carps. What a ...

Easy rigs Fishing the feeder is one of the most popular technique here in Hungary. There is no question on that. The sensitivity of the feeder tip and various rigs allows us to adapt almost any situations. We can catch the most sensitive, most careful fishes as well, if we can find them, and offer the right bait on the hook using the right rig. I spent so many beautiful hours fishing this lake using different rigs. There are plenty of bait offering solution or possibility ...

If somebody uses feeder rods frequently, than he wants to know more and more about its history, not just about tackle or baits. How did somebody start to think - in the cloudy England - about using the tip of the rod as indicator? Why was it required to develop the technique to fishing in this method while the float fishing is so popular on the water banks in England? I was thinking on such things while I was walking to my favorite lake, my rodbag was on my shoulder. The Sun was shining but ...

Frosty floating

The town was completely frozen. The rimes were shining at rays of the first rays of the rising Sun. It brought much of light, but not warmth. We have to wait until the spring comes, the ground defrost and the trees getting green again. I was walking sleepy to the lake called Boating Lake. It seemed the whole world were sleeping at that moment. There was none on the lake bank, I met with some ducks only. The anglers gave some groundbait to them. I never bring the remaining with me, just left ...

The true Fall arrived in the first days of October. The air was chill and heavy due to the fog. The wind was cold, I felt it on my face, when I was cycling to my hometown’s lake. The trees were swaying in the wind, which was getting stronger and stronger trough the morning. The king’s city is not a calm place neither in history nor in meteorology manner. The mid days were good, however the mornings getting more and more colder. Hopefully the waterfront was ...

The true hot summertime arrived at the last weeks of August. People and and animals went to the shadows of the trees as well, to find a little bit colder place and to spend as less time under the shining Sun as possible. It looked as if the water was boiling thanks to the fishes, who came up from the deeper - less oxygen - water layers to the upper, warmer water just below the surface. The just want some fresh air. My first pike was caught with feeder rod. In these times, it ...
