Unfinished Business - Lake Bled Carp Fishing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- In 2022 together with my very good friend Adrian I had embarked on an epic 10 day euro trip. We fished in 3 different countries with the grand finale at Lake Bled in Slovenia. Lake Bled proved to be 4 difficult days of fishing, and at the end of it we only had 2 very small carp to show for it. We were severely underprepared for what fishing Lake Bled entails. Not being mobile enough was probably our biggest dissadvantage, but the fact that we were tired and sleeping at most 3 hours per night did not help. Although the trip was difficult, while we fishing we met Rene, a fellow carp angler from Germany, and over the last year we'd become good friends.
It was truly a humbling adventure which I don't think I'll ever be able to forget. From the moment we wrapped up the trip, I felt like I had unfinished business, I desperately needed to come back and get even.
Join Me, Adrian and Rene on this years Bled carp fishing adventure and find out if I can redeem myself for last years poor results.
Mind... blown.
As per usual Paul, you have set the bar even higher for North American Carp anglers!
Thanks Will, appreciate the kind words my dude!
Found myself here after watching your latest video ("40lb+ Carp from Untouched Canadian Lakes"). That video was the first one I watched on this channel and it's definitely one of my top 5 carp fishing videos of all time. I could elaborate on what I loved about it for way too long but simply put, it was extremely enjoyable. One of the reasons why I liked it so much is that I could relate to it in a sense. Canada is a country typically associated with pike/musky/trout fishing, not carp fishing. I live in Sweden, a country known for pike and trout fishing. However, I am interested in the carp that swims in the big forest lakes here. So that way the video felt really close to heart. And your amazing reactions to catching those fish made the video even better. I've watched so many similar videos from big companies in the industry and the anglers barely show any emotions catching huge fish. Hopefully we will see more of that, but maybe it's a little difficult filming right now as the cold winter is approaching.
Well, now I'm gonna watch this video and I'm sure I won't be disappointed.
Best Regards,
Daniel B.
Daniel, thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome comment! After all the hard work that goes into putting these videos together, it makes it all worth while! As for upcoming trips, i want myself a snow carp but who knows if I will succeed this year! Have you fished the big forst lakes?
@TeamCarpFishing Actually just starting out serious carp fishing. The venues here are rather difficult. No man-made lakes, low-stock, public waters etc. But I think I prefer those type of waters over small, muddy, non-exciting pay-lakes...
Well done, nice video. Greets from Austria👍🤙
Thank you!!! Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
amazing video - as good as anything I have seen on youtube.
Thanks for the kind words James! Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
This trip must have been amazing..Some really nice fat carp!..The editing was top notch too!...great video bro👊👍💪
Thanks man! The trip had its ups and downs, I can only say I enjoyed the first few days, after that I was just trying to make the best of it!
Nice video! I've been in Bled 2021 and met some carp anglers there and then. Really want to go back and go carping or pike fishing. Cheers from Sweden! 😄
@@FishingTheLure The place is very special, I wish it was not so far away, but hopefully will go back again soon!
Felicitări pentru acest video Paul.
Ai rezistat eroic chiar dacă nu te ai simțit prea bine.
Cu siguranță acest 2024 te va găsi din nou pe lacul Bled cu capturi mult mai însemnate decât în trecut.
Keep going you are doing good job!

You are really growing your popularity, well done.
great video, wish you a fast recovery.
not the most productive day but you catch some you lose some.
Hahaha... the salami jokes were plenty, I left one in for good form! 😂
Well done, Paul. A big Bled carp is a prize indeed. You worked hard for that!
Thanks Tim, it was indeed harder than I thought it would be, but well worth it!
Amazing!!!

Well done bro 🙌🏻
Thanks bro!!! 🙌
Great job Paul 👏 nice fish! You really pushed through that sickness and I was really hoping you'd get another one!
Thanks Bill, I would have loved to catch another chunk, but something tells me I'm always battling an uphill battle at bled 😂
Next time you'll be even more prepared than the last in every way. And the universe owes you one for turning you into a fountain.

Thanks Pierre! 🙌
What month was this Paul? Epic video
Happy to hear you enjoyed it. This was end of May, beginning of June!
@ Thank you. Was there last year in late July. Thinking about going start of June. But worried that it will be when they are spawning the most😅
@@carlfrederikbalslev5083 they finish spawning by June 15... thats when the protected areas open!
@@TeamCarpFishing Ah, I see. You think we’ll be having problems catching them from 10th -19th of June then?🥲
I think you will have a chance, every year is different! When the protected area opens, it is a good idea to go and fish that area as there wouldnt have been any pressure on those swims for a few months!
Any fishing shops around? Could we purchase fishing license there?
You have to purchase licenses online, only 10 licenses are available per day and they go for sale 1st of Feb. Most tickets during the spring - fall would be sold out by now. As for tackle shops, Forge Tackle is based in Bled, contact Enrico (the owner) and he can help you out!
Thank you for information. Great video.
whats the next video gonna be about?
