About the Champion of the Queen

Champion of the Queen

Since the beginning of CAG, the Carp Anglers Group “Champion of the Queen” award (sometimes referred as “Protector of the Queen” award) has been used to acknowledge exceptional achievements in promoting CAG and carp angling in North America.

It is so called after Izaak Walton author of the Complete Angler (1653) described the Carp as the "Queen of Rivers": a Stately, Good and very Subtle Fish.
