Would love to see some non Austin events for the future if possible, the brazos would be ideal for an event.

Scott,
This looks great and thanks for putting it together. However, the distance is going to be an issue for me as well - there is no way I could make all of those events (but I'll try to make a few).
I'd like to suggest a second event, similar to what txfishes does, that would track the weight of carp based on submissions throughout the state. Obviously the honor system would be in play here, but it may be cool to have a "scoreboard" for statewide catches. Maybe a picture of each fish must be submitted to validate or something along those lines?

Very excited about these! It is filling the void of events we used to have as LSCB. I'm sure I'll make some of them as well. Nick, let's plan some events around Houston. Although we dont have venues that rival those in Austin or DFW, we can still get together for fish-ins.

If you need any help south of Austin, let me know and I will see what I can do.

I think we may have some we just haven't "developed" them yet. Lots of places left to explore in my opinion. But I agree - we need some fish ins over the winter.

From their website:
Contact a Wild Carp Companies representative if you would like to start a Wild Carp Club in your area!
Might be fun to start one in the North Texas Area.

Looks like I might be relocating the first session at Emma long park. I scouted the whole lake the other day and the weed line is horrible. Unless you are landing the fish from a boat or kayak it isn't worth it. Prolly gonna move it to Decker or possibly the Brazos in Waco

It's true from what we have seen there are very few spots that are weedfree enough to actually land the fish and I hate leaving fish with hooks in them or damaged lips.

As long as its before the summer crowds and they are spread from the dock to the damn, there are plenty of pegs I reckon.
