Net::IRC isn't the best way in the world of creating an IRC bot. I just use IO::Socket, and establish & maintain the connection to IRC myself within my own source. Personally that's the better option. I've never played with IRC, but a friend of mine has, and said it wasn't the easiest of modules to use. Create a socket using IO::Socket, then create a while loop while (<$sock>) .. }, and within manage your socket, writing routines for ping, privmsg, etc.
