    Fall Big 4 2018 Winners.JPG

    The Big 4 winners will have their Big Carp Tackle (BCT) accounts credited for the amount shown. 

    If you do NOT have a BCT account please set one up or contact me ASAP.

    The winners of the Big Common (Kody Clayton) and Big Mirror (Jerome Mosiand) will each receive prizes that include:

    A RidgeMonkey 15L Collapsible Bucket and a selection of baits from World Classic Baits.

    Well done everyone and thank you for entering!

  3. I've stuck with Regular Oats and Creamed Corn and will sometimes add some grits to promote quicker breakdown as needed. 

    I no longer bother to flavor the method / pack and prefer to focus on trying different hook baits or different flavored puffs. 

    It has worked very well recently in water temps down to 48F

  4. Thanks to former Steve Clow, a former State Chair, CT allows potential record carp to be weighed on Certified Scales at the place of capture in the presence of an independent witness.  So no need to kill or transport a fish. 

    Roland said he did not want to claim a record but as everyone can see it is a magnificent fish and a dream capture.

  5. Leaderboard Instructions

    CAG Leaderboard Instructions.pdf

    Maximum image size for upload to the leaderboard is 500Kb. An easy way to get the correct image file size is to send the image to yourself in an email. It will ask you what size image you want to send (less than 500Kb). You don't even need to send the email just save the file (rename it to avoid over writing the original) to your computer or phone and then you are ready  upload.

    The Logo

    The logo for the 2018 Fall Big 4 will be posted in a separate thread just before the the Big 4 start date.

    You are required to submit 1 photo of each fish you catch along with it's weight.

    This photo MUST CLEARLY show the angler holding the fish, a printed 2018 FALL Big 4 logo, and your SCALE.

    Remember, the star of these photos is you with your fish. Your photo may end up in a magazine! The logo and scale just need to be there somewhere to prove you have them. They can be anywhere in the photo as long as they are identifiable. 

    A good way to manage this is to tape the logo to your scale:

    Big 4 Scale.jpg

    Alternative Options


    The Big 4 Logo is only 3.75 x 2.75." This is the size of many state/provincial fishing and hunting licenses. You can Also put your logo in a standard license holder from any tackle shop, and pin it on your clothes, or even your unhooking mat.
