The second 30+ kilogram carp of the 12th IBCC weighed 30.1 kg and was caught by Team KerioBaits on peg 235 in Si\u00f3fok, at Nagystrand, in the SENCORD sector. This catch already signalled in the morning hours that Day 6 still had plenty of big moments in store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_4086.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Not long afterwards, in the early afternoon, another standout result arrived: Team Kaprarina.cz landed the biggest mirror carp of the competition so far, weighing 26.9 kg. With that, the lead changed hands in yet another category, adding even more excitement ahead of the final phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the day progressed, the overall standings also became incredibly tight. From early evening onward, the gap between the two leading teams narrowed to such a small margin that less than the weight of a single fish separated them. Team EKO BAITS III on peg 102 in Balatonkereszt\u00far \u2013 Strand, and Tropic RidgeMonkey Team Cz on peg 49, therefore headed into the final night of the competition locked in a very close battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, another major shift took place in the big fish categories as well. Black Carp Team Hungary, fishing on peg 123, caught a 30-plus mirror carp and with it took over the lead in the Biggest Mirror Carp category. The catch not only changed the top of the category standings, but also became one of the most memorable moments of the sixth day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/fishingandhuntingtv.com\/international\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image00002-2048x1152.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Day 6 ultimately delivered intensity on every level: the weather turned more favourable, the number of bites increased, more 30+ kilogram fish were landed, and the battle at the top of the overall standings became even more fierce. Everything was in place for the final night of the 12th IBCC to bring real tension and further dramatic turns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By the sixth day of the competition, the weather around Lake Balaton had calmed down significantly, and that change was clearly reflected in the increasing number of bites.
