Well done on the Carp King win, especially from an inner peg.

Results from Paul Pezalla:

We had 89 angers registered for the event, 86 actually fished (Frank & Narda chose to steward rather than fish and one person did not show up). Of the 86 fishing, 30 anglers caught a total of 73 carp plus quite a number of channel cats.

North American Carp Champion (weight of 4 fish) is Rick Slinker of Indianapolis IN with 4 fish totaling 35 lbs 10 ozs.
Second is Shawn Woerlien of Galion OH with 34-0
Third is Herman Seremala of Phoenix IL with 31-0

Chicago Carp King (biggest fish) is Andy Klocek of Elmwood Park IL at 14 lbs 1 oz.
Second is Len Perdic of Burlington Ontario at 13-2
Third is Rod Mills of Fairfield OH at 12-14

Fox International Classic Carper (total weight of all fish caught) is Herman Seremala with 54 lbs 4 ozs
Second is Shawn Woerlien at 53-2
Third is Rick Slinker at 47-10

Also Herman Seremala caught the only mirror, plus caught a fish at 11:52 (hence the closest to noon), winning specials prizes from Frank & Narda (for the mirror) and from the ACS (noonish fish)

Congratulations to all participants!
