The "coveted Brass Carp" shoot will be on Clinton Lake.

West side launch.
Biggest 6 carp.
Side pot for the most carp.

***Note the Brass carp can only be won by club members as it is a traveling trophy and the winner will be resonsible for putting on the tourney next year***

This will be the first and only tournament on clinton lake this year. is it going to be cookout as well? West ramp is that where we had it before? Hope we can find 6 carp.

Looks like trouble to me. leave it to ken to bring a ringer. Joe, Clinton lake is typically a good lake to shoot. Has lots of common carp. You might see a buffalo or two but that is it. no gar, grassies etc. That time of year most of the speed boats should be gone. Should be a good hurrah for the season.

We will have to see if anyone is interested in a cook out. If enough people let me know before hand...

But thats Poole! I think im gonna have to miss this one...with only the troller working if i even get around to fixing it. Then there is a huge UFC fight on that i got some money on. Next year ill try to be a contender more for all the shoots!
