All details pertaining to the Carp Team will be posted here. If you are interested in carp fishing then join the forum and get interactive. Key carp fixtures are listed on the fixtures and results page.

The Fox RAF Carp Team is the fastest growing arm of the RAFCAA with over 40 registered members and many more who join us intermittently. Fox RAF is dedicated to the pursuit of large carp, whilst raising the profile of RAF Angling in the process. We have representation in the British Carp Angling Championships (BCAC) and another 8 organised RAF and Inter Service events planned throughout 2008. The team is by no means exclusive to seasoned carp fisherman, as newcomers to the sport will be welcomed and Fox RAF membership is open to all RAF personnel. However, anglers should be aware that they will require tackle capable of landing carp in excess of 40 pounds and have the amenities to withstand 72 hours by the lakeside.

As a member of Fox RAF you will be able to take advantage of our excellent sponsorship deals with Fox International and Mainline Bait. Furthermore, giving you the opportunity to fight for a place in the RAF and BCAC teams. The atmosphere during events is very laid back and always a good chance to pick up some decent tips and have good social.
