Our newest member to join the RI CAG (RI Carp Anglers Group) is Eric. He joined last night. That must have been a lucky move because today we went fishing and Eric scored a PB (personal best) common carp of 21 lbs. 8 oz. The fish was not long but had a big stomach that looked as if it swallowed a beer barrel. And, it put up one heck of a fight.
You might remember that Eric. He was the photographer that I took out earlier in the year. He has been lucky on the times we have gone fishing, but he is also a fast learner and a fisherman who sticks with it and really puts in his time. He has landed many twenties (commons and mirrors) this year, a fantastic start for a first year carp fisherman. So, congrats Eric on your new PB and may you score many more.
RI CAG members often fish a lot together. I try to take all new members out and personally show them the ropes. We also offer fish-ins and get togethers and the CAG national club offers events, contests, Forum threads for members, discounts and an e-magazine. If you join the CAG, you automatically become a RI CAG member. If you are interested in joining you can sign up on the CAG website at www.carpanglersgroup.com
