City of Oconto to Host WI CC Qualifier!



Great News from the City of Oconto; they have agreed to host a WI Carp Championship Qualifier in their fair City this year! The Oconto River is a classic Big Carp water, with large fish running up the river each Spring. The Oconto WI CC Qualifier will be held on Saturday May 8th, which should give all anglers competing a chance at a really Big Carp... or three!

Please contact me if you'd like to fish this Tournament; the Entry Fee of $25 is payable on the day, and (as always with WI CC Qualifiers) there will be a 100% payout of the Entry Fees. The rules are simple; catch & release Carp Fishing from the Shore in the Tournament Area only, weight of the best 5 Carp will count (just like a Bass Tournament), fish-friendly rigs and equipment to be used, fish will be weighed by "buddy system" (you weigh your neighbor's fish, they weigh yours), etc. For more details on the WI Carp Championship, please check out this link.

If you're interested, but not sure if you can catch Carp in a tournament setting, please feel free to check out the action on the day; I'm sure all the anglers will be happy to share their knowledge and show off the big fish they are catching!

We welcome everyone to enjoy this First Annual Carp Oconto Catch & Release. It will be a fun filled day for anyone, and families who love to watch anglers catch the big fish. This is a first for Oconto, lets all support this fast action and celebrate the construction project at Breakwater Park. When finished the Oconto Harbor will not have to take a back seat to any Harbor on Green Bay.
