Bio: I started fishing at the age of 7. First on coarse fish, then eel and zander. At the age of 20, I started competing on coarse fish. As a competitive angler (since 2006 for Sensas) I won the Sensas Final in 2005, the Browning Champions Trophy in 2008 and I was twice German Champion of the clubs. I was a member of the German national team for many years. Until I discovered my love for lure fishing for predatory fish in 2012.
Where you fish: I prefer to fish from the boat on big lakes and in the archipelago. The pike is my favourite fish. Since 2022 I also like to fish for zander, in the big river "Elbe".
Fishing techniques: I love fishing with big baits and jerks for pike. I am good at jigging on the big river during the day on zander and at night with hard lures in rocky shallow water.
