One XL for me thanks Neil.
-
Seemed to upload just fine how do you view the "current status" ??
-
Support from the Texas parks and wildlife folks is certainly appreciated, looking forward to the trek.
-
Slowly but surely we are getting there...
-
Thanks Neil, I see folks are voting
but the numbers don't add up , is it possible to vote for just one of the questions ? -
Ok it is time to get this going! It is Team Canada turn to host this event. Any info out there? Who is in charge? Where and when will it be hosted? USA USA USA!!!!
AF Bob
It's that time of the year again... I would hate for this to become another walk over for the US..
Rumor had it in 2013 that it would be held on the north bank in 2014, so is anyone stepping up or is it too cold to plan anything ?
-
Thanks Neil, when the temps are in the single digits constant tapping on a keyboard helps to prevent frostbite.
got to love this conversation,,,,,,I will call some of the guys this week and put several issues to rest,,, ie.
-
Neil,
will the peg list be the same as last year or will a revised list be issued ? Be nice to have one available a week or so before if at all possible.
Hopefully there will be a couple of extra's so that the last from the hat will still have some say in which poison they wish to take.
Thanks for all the hard work and we are really looking forward to the event.

If you consider it from a "glass-half-full" perspective, I suspect that more bragging rights would go to a winning team that managed to pull enough fish from a "flyer" on Day ......plus sufficient from a Day 2 swim that had failed to produce on Day 1 when compared to any team that won the random-draws lottery and drew two "flyers"?
Iain
Ian, just how bad are you going to feel picking the red hot peg from day 1 on day 2 and then blanking ??
At least with the old system you could always fall back on the luck of the draw as an excuse
-
I would rather stick to the old format, travelling a long way so I'll add a few days after the event to catch if necessary.
There are swims that don't get pegged for folks to choose on day 2 if they are unhappy with their lot.
Go with big 4 / 5 if you want to give everyone a chance to win but don't handicap those who caught on day 1.
The weather will still have a big say in where the fish will be....

I prefer the closed tube style throwing sticks. They allow multiple boilies to be loaded which makes baiting up quicker and easier.
Unless I need very long range I will add 2, 3 or even upto 6 boilies at a time.
spombs are ideal for boilies that are misshaped. fragile or too dry to fly properly or need to be dropped very accurately over a specific spot.
I'd agree, certainly not a major issue to have half a dozen / ten boilies in a close group especially if you are using a stringer etc with your hookbait.
-
Tom, nowhere to park any where near the basin or Haines point. All blocked off until the folks at the top of the hill get themselves sorted.
-
No. Franklin lifted it and his judgement has proven pretty accurate over the years.
How far did he manage to throw it...
-
Here are a few pics to add to the pile... A great time, shame the folks from North of the river didn't come and enjoy the fine weather and fishing.
-
Bob, have the fish stopped jumping in that swim yet ...... :-)
-
Be good to see you Fran and to share a bottle or two of red with Bob..
-
Well that's great news. Thanks for stepping up folks.
The real spirit of CAG is really exemplified by this event and it would have been a shame to have leveled the score by default.
See u in a month ...

You can't go too far wrong with a Shimano Baitrunner 4500 true work horse..
-
Last I heard thanks to the agency this spot has been fished to death with commercial folk hauling fish away.. but if you want some advice u might want to stay in the members section...
-
Tea! I'm likely to show up :-) do you have any dates in mind ??
-
Yes that is the case these days....
-
Spoon, thanks for the reply. I'll see what the weather forecast for this area and act accordingly. I'll go ahead and make a trip to Tractor Supply Sunday and get ready. The carp I have seen are not real big but you never know when Moby Carp will wander in. I'll be in touch.
Well they may not be too big now but if you keep feeding them they are highly unlikely to get any smaller.. ;-)

So are we just needing one more for the US Team ?? Get in there quick it's going to be a fun event.
