Here is a PDF teaser article from the latest North American Carper Magazine. Written by Jason Cann, this article describes a memorable catch at the World Carp Classic in France this past September and features a cameo by a notorious member of the American carp scene. Remember CAG membership includes four issues a year, and access to a digital archive of NACAs going back several years!

This year, for the fourth time in a row, a group of CAG members from Chicagoland is going to compete again in the Winter Carp League.
The event is bigger this season than ever. There are 18 participants fighting during the winter months against the low temperatures, snow, tough conditions and of course against themselves!
There will be 2 groups of 9 anglers in each one, meeting every two weeks on Sunday to catch carp in Lockport, IL.
At the end of the season the best anglers in fallowing categories: biggest carp and total weight overall will be awarded.
The Winter Carp League starts November 15.
Tight Lines to all competitors!
The 2009 CAG Classic and Annual meeting are to be held the weekend of September 25-27 at Hamilton Harbor in Ontario, Canada. You must be a CAG member to participate.
