Markus Teilus and Emanuel Swärd were not credited with any points at the end of the first day despite their efforts to target the big fish on the Grub (or Curly Tail) rewarded with 2 fish measured 108 and 102 cm. The duo started the second day of competition in the lake with the same strategy: go for the big fish and the Big Fish point on a slow prospecting with the Fire Tail in the middle of the baitfish. This approach was quickly rewarded by the catch of a fish measured by Markus Teilus and then the duo realized a nice double of fish measured, 79 and 87 cm. Amanuel Swärd then made a solo appearance with a pike of 91 cm which completed and validated their Top 5.

Markus Maliszewski and Alexander Lexén had a very difficult first day of "big fish fishing", not succeeding in getting any fish. This 2nd day as a new start with the same objective: to target big fish. First fish validated at 83 cm. The deliverance will arrive finally and an exceptional fish of 1,26m! This record fish in the history of the competition comes to reward the abnegation, the efforts and the discipline which the two fishermen show in each season of Fly Vs Jerk by focusing only on the search for big fish. A real tour de force! Go Big or Go Home!

The Raymarine/Daiwa team represented by Torbjörn "Buster" Odén and Pär Lindberg aimed for the Top 5 today, hoping to cross paths with a "real" big one too. It's with a big pike that it all starts as Torbjörn gets on board a first fish of 1 meter and then transforms the try with a second fish validated at 92 cm.

Stephan Nielsen and Rikard Bergström had an extremely complicated first day which resulted in the catching of only 2 mesh fishâ?¦ The duo intends to ward off the bad luck at the beginning of this new day of competition. The objective: the Top 5 and the Big Fish. Unfortunately, the first hours of this 2nd day are like the previous one: a crossing of the desertâeuros¦ The duo reasonably decides to change lake in the hope to cross the road of a big fish.

Björn Böström and Jakob Hank encounter a big problem even before putting the boat in the water: the snow that fell in quantity during the nightâeuros¦ After getting out the snow shovels, the duo is finally on the water. First fish validated at 92 cm then the team changes of lake, leaving on the bank and exchanging their Alumacraft by a boat equipped with an electric motor! A quick interlude marked by the catch of a gillnet fish and a superb Brown trout!

Pierre Monjarret and Stefan Trumstedt, who finished the first day with 2 points and 136 fish, logically change their approach for this day in the lake by targeting more big fish with bigger lures. They swapped the Pig Shad Jr for the Giant version and the famous Miuras Mouse. The duo will unfortunately not live the morning of fishing hoped.

Pasi Tapponen and Lars Litzel were the last to launch their boat. First and only fish of the morning validated at 77 cm.

Review of the points

The young and deserving Headbanger team virtually takes the number and Top 5 points in this 3rd episode. On their side, Leech/Gator knocked out the competition with their record fish of 1.26 m allowing them to put a more than serious option on the point of the Big Fish at the end of the 2nd day of competition, the catch of a bigger fish being very unlikely. But who knows, fishing is still fishingâ?¦ Stay tuned for the next part of the competition which promises to be exciting!
