Results of RI CAG Spring Big 3 Tournament

Brian Savage hoists a beautiful 28 lb. 11 oz. mirror, the biggest
fish landed in the tournament.  Brian was also this year's gold
medal winner for the most points.

This year we held an abbreviated and modified Spring Big 3 Tournament for RI CAG members.  The event ran for 2 months in May and June.  Here's how this year's event worked.  You could enter your 3 biggest carp by weight.  It didn't matter which months they were caught.  The weights were added up and that was the point total.  All fish entered had to be caught in RI waters. The national group bought engraved medals for the top three finishers.

Here is a summary of the top three winners and the weights of their biggest three (lbs./oz.):

Gold medal- Brian Savage- 15/10, 18, 28/11 = 62 lbs., 5 oz.

Silver medal- Manny Dias- 14, 14, 18 = 46 lbs.

Bronze medal- Tony Carvalho- 12/2, 14, 12 = 38 lbs., 2 oz.

Honorable mention to Tom Perron and Jeff Henderson for submitting some quality fish.
