hammercarp Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I participated in our clubs event The FFF ( First Fishing Folly) . The goal is to be the first angler to catch a carp on Jan. 2013. Fishing commenced at midnight. I caught this 25 lb'er at about 1:10 am. I had the pleasure of fishing with Mark / hairwig. Had fun.

Congrats on such a beautiful Fish to start the NEW YEARS off with. * I went out on New Years Eve as well (Was targeting Night Steel) ... Unfortunately, no luck.

Brian_b Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Nice Carp... Did anyone catch b4 1:10am? How many fish were caught during this event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammercarp Posted January 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 This event is North American wide so I don't know how many carp were caught . I do know that there were fish caught between midnight and when I I caught mine, I think mine was the biggest. The results will be tallied and posted in a few days.

ChefMick Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 HC..grats on the carp. I would wish for a carp like that any hour of any day. for me catching a great carp is not about the fight, but the beautiful hues and shades of gold that make them trophy's.
