Big River Race, Váh River, Slovakia
This year we went to defend victory from the last year to Big River Race, and we knew, that it would be a very difficult mission. To win such a big competition in such a big river, it requires except of some knowledge also big portion of luck, and nobody can be lucky in two subsequent years
Patrik and Honza could not come, so I took Michal and also our friend Vlasta. We went on Wednesday to have some time to practice, and I have to say that we very enjoyed the trip, we had great food, great accommodation, good beer, we met many friendly people, caught many nice fish, learned a lot, and the competition was interesting. Twelfth place is not bad, however after wining of the second session and gaining 5th position after the second session we looked higher, but as I said in the beginning, we can not be lucky every year everywhere.
And Franta Hanák is right as he says ” it is always by one fish or by one centimetre ”
