CAG Big-4 Win
Introduction
I need to brag a little... I won the Carp Anglers Group's Big-4 event in the fall of 2019. I was behind by a few pounds with one hour of fishing left to go during my fall trip and a miracle occurred (after a full week of dismal results). I got a very timid take (I actually thought it was a catfish for a few seconds) which turned out to be an immaculate 36 pounder (36-8lb to be exact). And this last minute catch made me secure the win against the fearsome Claytons after battling with them for weeks!
Quite amazingly, although I went through a month-long road/fishing trip, my top 4 fish came from one single day of fishing at the very beginning of the trip until this last-minute catch made me improve my score by a few pounds. And those 4 fish were all 30 pounders (in order of display below: 34-8lb, 32lb, a 38lb beast, and another 32lb), ALL CAUGHT IN A SINGLE DAY. All credits to a good friend who brought me to a secret spot of his, which he had chummed for days.
Final Score
Since I am going to brag about this story for years to come, here is hard proof, the final score of the event. Note that not only I scored more than 140 pounds for the Big-4, but I went over 200 pounds for the unofficial Big-6 count (thanks to a 30lb I landed from another location during my trip). Kody Clayton did crush me for the biggest fish though... This winning score is going to be extremely hard for me to beat.
Previous events
I actually won the Big-4 three times so far. Just for the record, here are links to posts documenting event results and pics:
But then, to put things in perspective, during other instances of the event, some 'out of this world' results were logged:
