Last year I had the chance to spend 5 weeks on a beautiful lake in Hungary. Per week were just one or two days where the bigger carps came to eat, this was one of them. I had to spend many days alone, but it pays off for such a catch.

I was out fishing for three days with no fish, a lot of rain and cold weather. But at the last evening I was able to enjoy this beautiful sunset. The swans were feeding in front of my swim and I saw fish jumping over my spot. Then in the last sunlight my rod went of and I was able to land a nice common carp. – One of my best impressions this year.

The IB – Big Picture Voting for all
Due to the lots of great submissions it was pretty difficult to make a choice between the best 50 pictures and we have to admit, for one or another picture we took a long time to come to a decision. But we had to make a choice and we did it to the best of our knowledge and belief.
Since we had such difficulties to make our selection and did not want to unconsider the other ca. 190 participants, we decided to admit all ca. 230 participants to the voting and give each of them the chance to win one of the big prizes of a total value of 6500,00 €.
