Velké Pavlovice
Allround Cup of Moravian Angling Union
The second outdoor competition of MRS, hosted by Velké Pavlovice that time.

Having the season started we participated the second outdoor competition. Being happy of the great results reached at first competition we were looking forward the next action. But remembering the last season where second competition was worse than the first one, we were afraid of the same situation this year. And it happened again...

We had the same rivals from Kroměříž and Velké Pavlovice. Although Znojmo or Brno 3 did not participate, Slovakian friends came (as every year) from Bratislava, Nové Zámky and Povážská Bystrica. So 30 casters that time. Jihlava came with 3 boys, 3 men and 1 lady of Ostrava. Vojta and Adam for heptathlon again.

Strong wind from left side was the first we felt. There was a change that the wind would slow down during day so we decided to enjoy wind during distance events and have accuracy later when wind would be weak. And based on this decision events order was 2,5,6,4,8,1,3,9,7. Unfortunately some strange change of wind direction during events 1 and 3 but the rest was fine.

Fly distance was not nice. Casting sector was in bad angle to the platform so not every caster was able to cast into the sector. When cast was high enough, wind took the line and moved it to the right and out of the sector. Nothing great for beginners. But other distance events were fine then.

Since second caster in order of fly skish the wind wend against front of caster. Some casters had to wait so long that they were happy to finish the event in time. Much worse for beginners. And in the same style arenberg was prepared too. Some of casters were remembering world championship in Hungary, the rest could try it.

The youngest member of team, Filip could not go so Adam was the only Jihlava guy in boys -12 years category. Fighting with Honza from Chropyně again.

Adam had a problem with the casting sector, no experience with that so far. Finally having something below 70 points. Honza was very closed to him, missing only 7 points. At next event spinning distance Adam decided to have standard cast and in case of fail to cast safe cast next time. With smooth movement and power at the end of cast he got his cast over 60 meters for first time and got much more points than Honza.

At skish they had the same result and prepared for fly skish but casted in very bad conditions. Even adults had problem with that wind. Honza hit only four targets but Adam using his technique was able to hit 8 targets more. And at arenberg Adam had more points again.

So, although pentathlon result was 27 points worse than a week ago, Adam won. He would be 2nd in boys -15 years category.

That time we had Vojta and Honza in boys -15 years category, fighting against Matěj of Kroměříž. Vojta started at fly distance very well. Like week ago he go over 50 meters line and for first time he did beat 100 points line at fly distance. Honza still have a technique problem and since we could not have any training during the last week we could only use technique "make the line stretched behind You and cast it into wind". We lost only 4 point to beat Matěj then.

At spinning distance Honza had his new personal record beating 50 meter line. Matěj had only little more. Vojta had safe cast over 50 meters, the second cast was bad and the last one was perfect but line made spirals around his finger. At skish Vojta missed only 3 times so made huge leading. Honza had the same result as Matěj.

Terrible problems at fly skish. During dry casts Vojta missed only two times but during wet casts he had some strange problem and could make the line stretched. When he finally did it, the line was too long or aside the target. Only the last cast hit the target. Honza did much worse result. Matěj was good at the event so got more points than Honza and made the lead of Vojta smaller. But at arenberg all had almost the same results and so Vojta was winner and Honza was at third position.

Zuzana started with fly distance better than her best last season result. Less than 2 points to got 100 points. With spinning distance he got 20 points for lead the ladies category.

Then the fight between Adéla from Chropyně and Zuzana. Adéla had 5 points more at spinning skish and 5 points more at fly skish. But Zuzana had great arenberg having 9 cast to center target and made the lead bigger. Winning the pentathlon with no doubt.

In all round Zuzana had only 3 missing casts at multi skish and then she had a distance cast that would be 5th best cast in men category. So she won the all-round too.

Nature

Three guys from Jihlava fought in men category. Jirka had problems with his casting shoulder so no good result. Finally got pentathlon under 400 points. But at least the arenberg was not bad, during crazy wind he reached quite good result, based on his skills.

Tomáš really enjoined the distance events. At fly distance he reached the 50 meter line and made his personal record better by 12 points. At fly distance he had similar cast like a week ago. At skish he had only 5 points below his record and although bad result at fly skish, thanks to good arenberg he made his new personal pentathlon record increased by 9 points.

Karel had over 60 meter ad fly distance again but another 3 casters got over 120 points and Karol from Bratislava had 4 points more than Karel. At spinning distance Karel had his best cast of this and last year season but another 3 casters had more points, especially the Karol. So it was about the target results. At skish Karel missed one target. Karol missed one target. At fly skish Karel had full points. Karol had full points. Arenberg had to determine the winner. There Karel had bad mood and casted not well. But Karol had the same result again. So Karol did beat Karel and Karel was at the second position because of worse distance results. Only Karel and Karol were able to had more than 510 points in pentathlon.

Nature

And the double handed events. Adam get over 90 points at salmon again and he had only safe cast at 18g, so heptathlon was worse than week ago. But mainly because bad pentathlon. Vojta made his new record at salmon with 13 points higher result and had only safe cast at 18g like Adam. Finally he also get over 600 points at heptathlon, but mainly because of word pentathlon he was not better.

Jirka got over 120 points again and new personal record at 18g. Beating some of much experienced casters, this made him happy. Worse heptathlon because of bad pentathlon.
Tomáš was very close to his best results and that made his new personal records at heptathlon 8 points better.
Karel got over 80 meter by one cast again and he was one of the only two guys having more than 150 points. Karol had much more. At 18g Karol was not able to cast into the sector so he got zero at 18g. Karel was one of the three guys casting over 100 meters and so he won the heptathlon. Miloš was the second and Jára was the third.

Nature

Bad weather, complicated conditions, some of guys had to deal it that for very first time. But finally each Jihlava caster made same personal record again.

Now the adult casters have some time for rest. League of youth is coming.
