We've made the decision to take a year off from the
Carp Connection Cup charity fundraiser.
This will give all our sponsors a chance to have a
rest, and will ensure that 2008's event is the
biggest yet. We're already planning that event with
details to be released early in the year
Thanks for your support.

Carp Connection Cup 2006
Overview
The Carp Connection Cup 2006 is to take place at
Kingfisher Lake (AKA Abbey Heath), just off the A11
at Thetford you can
read
about the venue on this page. The event will take place on the
weekend of Friday 4th to Sunday 6th August, to be
fished over two nights.
With a good head of original fish, many running over
the 20lb mark, and stacks of young fish,
it is hoped there will be plenty of action.
There are two cups on offer this year, one for the
biggest carp caught and the other being for the most
carp caught.
In addition to entrance fees, we will also be
raising money for these causes through a BBQ on the
Saturday night and a Raffle with prizes donated by
forum members, tackle shops and the trade.
All entrants to the event must be members of the
Carp Connection Forum, which is widely used by
anglers in East Anglia. Due to the small amount of
places available, entrance will be accepted on a
first come first served basis.
Unfortunately, due to restricted bankside space,
there will not be a casting demo/competition this
year.
Rules
Due to the nature of the venue, we have a two rod
rule in place for all entrants. This is to allow us
to maximise the fishing space available, and fit as
many people on the lakes as possible.
We ask that anglers respect each others fishing and
fish amicably, please remember though, this is a
social event!
All competitors must have a decent unhooking mat,
beanie type mats are not deemed acceptable. There
are no bait bans, but shop brought prepared
particles are preferred. Bait Boats are not to be
used at the Carp Connection Cup. All other rules are the
Lakes normal rulings.
All captures are to be reported to Basil, Bumpy or
Kishy and competitors must fill out their capture
forms.
All anglers must reel in for the Saturday
night BBQ.
Swim Draw
The Draw for swims will take place at 1pm on the
Friday afternoon.
Anyone who turns up after the draw is made is
welcome to fill any other swims available. For more
details please view the
Schedule.
BBQ Party & Raffle
On the Saturday night there will be a BBQ Party
for all competitors and guests. After the BBQ the
raffle will be drawn. Full details are on the
Schedule
page.
