The Odd the Sad and the Ugly
Contest
It is said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I find this particular saying most appropriate in the world of carp fishing.
No other fish in the history of mankind has been depicted in art as much as our beloved carp. But let’s face it, there are some odd, sad, and ugly looking Cyprinoids that grace our nets on occasion; so odd looking, or in such sad shape, or so plain ole ugly that we just had to take a picture of it.
This contest is not a celebration of the bizarre; it is an acknowledgement of the resilience of our beloved Cyprinus Carpio, a true survivor!
So this month’s (February 2012) contest will be for a picture and description of that odd, sad or ugly carp you or your friend has caught.
Entries will be accepted through Tuesday, Februrary 21th, followed by one week of voting.
The winner will be announced on February 29th and showered with gifts from the CAG store.
The top three finishers will receive a CAG iron on patch, a CAG tape measure and CAG mouse pad. The 1st place finisher will also receive a CAG T-Shirt of his choice.
On your mark- Get set- Go! Good luck to you all!
