Target for the season 2007?
Of course one of my main targets is to defend my title the Battle-competition. Hopefully the trend with few catchless sessions keep holding on and I will try to catch the 33 pounder that was my goal last year. I´m going to test some new waters and maybe there will be tripp abroad later this year.

Target for the season 2006?
My target for the coming season is to try to follow up the succesful season 2005. Analyse what I did right and what things to can improve. If I check out more specific carptagets I want to catch five carps over 20 lbs and one over 30 lbs in Sweden. Of course I also want´s to win the internal competition "Battle 2006"

Concerning other species I´d like to give the see-fishing some more time and a big cod is one of my goals. Break my personal record on chub is also one of my targets.
