A World Record with More Than 1,400 Kg (3,000 lbs) Catch at Carp Fishing Competition

The World Record catch is attached to Zoltán Kovács competition angler’s team, the SBS Szi-Ko Team and to SBS Tactical Baits, the bait producing company owned by him since 2008. The SBS Szi-Ko Team set a world record with the catch of 1415,05 kg, between 20-24th June 2011, at the II. International Carp Angling Competition in Mór. The competition lasted for 96 hours. The key to the success was the method mix that had been developed in 10 months, and the corresponding hook bait, which intensively increases the food intake of the fish.

"This bait knows lot more than we expected. Physically I have never felt myself that tired since we were continuously catching fish in 96 hours.” – said Zoltán Kovács, the front man of the team after the competition.

The SBS Tactical Baits is a company founded in England, and has more than 30 years of experience in baits production. The company has gone through a huge development since 2008. Since then professional experts support the tasks related to production, distribution, marketing, development and web-appearance. The main profile of the company is the experimentation and development of more and more effective baits for carp fishing. Thanks to the recently developed new baits, 2011 has become the most successful year of the company.

Besides the competition with the world record catch, the company also participated in the World Carp Classic competition held in France in 2011. This is the world’s largest, international carp-catching contest, where 130 teams from 24 countries participated this year. The SBS Tactical Baits was sector-sponsor this time, and the winner of the competition came out from the sector sponsored by SBS Tactical Baits. The company participated not only as a sponsor in the competition. The competitors of the SBS Szi-Ko Team won the first prize for the biggest fish of their sector with a carp caught at the weight of 24,80 kg. In aggregation, the team finished at the prestigious 7th place out of 130 teams. After the successful competition Zoltán Kovács traveled to the French Rainbow Lake, where his partner caught a carp at the weight of 34,20 kg with one of the company’s baits. The catches above 30 kg are recorded all over the world. Fortunately, it is not the first success of this kind in the history of SBS.

The SBS products have been launched in further European countries in the last 3 years, and interest is shown in the company’s baits from overseas, as well. The company’s website is available for carp anglers with unified design, in 5 languages. The products in the offer of the web shop have very detailed descriptions on the website. The different video materials and articles give the carp anglers further valuable information. This way they can acquire many tricks and practices to widen their knowledge in carp fishing.

The long-term goals of SBS Tactical Baits are among others the popularization of the Catch & Release campaign, to make the children like nature, to make the SBS products popular worldwide, research and development of new products. The SBS Tactical Baits hopes to satisfy many carp anglers with the high-quality products.
