Hey Paul, thanks for recommending this trip. Even though we have not really done much freshwater fishing we all still had a great laugh. Pontus is a great guide and helped us loads
Wow-what a great weeks fishing. We had 9 Carp between 31lb and 52lb, 36 Catfish biggest being 145lb. That river is alive with fish, unlike our UK rivers. Awesome holiday highly recommend to any serious angler
Thanks for the tips Paul those little hook baits done very well for the Carp. We had them to 39lb and you were not wrong about how hard they pull
Even though we went for the Catfish the Carp were an excellent distraction and something that we all have agreed we would go back to target. Great holiday and thanks Pontus
Hi Paul, thanks for organising this holiday. my grandson loved it. He struggled a little with the Cats but as soon as we started Carp fishing he loved reeling them in. The guide over there is great so please pass on my thanks
All the best Barry
Thanks for a great holiday
After the confusion of where to meet our transfer guy, we soon got to the hotel and checked in. Not really much to do in town but we were exhausted from the journey. All in all a great holiday, the fishing was a little slow until we decided to fish just for the Carp. My mate had a 46lb common smashing his PB by over 20lb
Hello Sportquest. Thanks for helping me organise this surprise holiday for my husband and me. We had a great time and he caught Catfish up to 180lb and a 48lb Carp. I was more than happy to sit with a good book and watch him. Thanks for a great holiday
Was disappointed with the fishing, the river was very high and lots of rubbish floating past. Shame really as we had looked for to it for such a long time.
Thanks for a great holiday
Had a fantastic trip, harsh conditions being may, but so worth it.
The guide stays with you all day, baits up in the boat, then returns to set rods,I caught a 125lb Cat, Jimmy 140lbs and Eddie 144lb Cat, also caught a 32lb Carp, plus plenty more between 50lb and 100lb.
Our guide Pontas was a fantastic lovely guy. Anything we needed, he went that further mile to make our dream holiday unforgettable. Came home 3 happy anglers!
Thank you,
Sportsquest
