Banilivka Pidhirny

Banilivka, BKK Cup. First day. We picked two spots at 60 and 120m. For the first weigh-in we took 3 fish and got a few runs and silence till evening, then got two more bites overnight. Second day we start seriously ramping up the feed at the spot, casting in regularly. This starts paying off. Caught 3 more carp, several crucians and got 4 runs in a row. At noon we decide to move to 80 meters and throw even more feed in the evening at two spots. During feeding we get another bite which played a really nasty trick on us. The rod setup collected three sticks. Had to reset everything. So no time to throw all the planned feed, but there was enough on the spots. After evening weigh-in we catch a few more fish in the evening and morning from two distances. Third day we start with 13 caught fish. Keep baiting the spots and catch 6 more fish during the day. In the evening we go all-in - prepare a lot of feed. Considering the previous day's experience, we start feeding at 16:40 and finish by 18:30. Till night we get only one bite. Then we keep casting boilies. Two of us sit on watch till 4am, waiting for fish, but unfortunately no luck. Then at 5:30 we finally get the long-awaited action. By the final weigh-in at noon we bring 6 fish. We're fourth in the zone... One fish short for third, second place needs a 5+kg fish. The judges leave the sector and we get the long-awaited bite - we land a 6kg fish. Quick recast and in 10 minutes we get another one at 4.5kg. And 10 minutes before the finish we get the third, final bite. And so the finale - we take 2nd place in the zone and 6th place across the lake. We also catch 28 fish total weighing 112kg. That's the second best weight result caught in the lake. Thanks to the organizers, neighbors and competitors for the amazing competition, adrenaline and unforgettable emotions
