At the 2007 World Fish Carving Championships in Reno Nevada, Fishcarving2 long time member Carl Lewis won two ribbons with this nicely carved Yellow Perch.

Carl took first place in the Yellow Perch Category, Novice Level, Fish Carvers Invitational Division, as well as Best of Category.

Well done Carl!




GROUP INTRODUCTION:
"What you find in the waters, WE find in the woods!"

This very active international group of over 430 carvers ranks in the top 2% of Yahoo Groups and is dedicated to the artistic replication of all species of fish in wood using a variety of hand & power tools, plus hand & power painting methods.

Members from more than 23 nations make up Fishcarving2 where we encourage and invite wood carvers in ALL skill levels from novice to expert. Emphasis is on realism and covers ALL aspects of the carving arts.

You'll be joining Canadian National & World Fish Carving Champions, plus a host of other World Class carvers from authors, publishers, and columnists to supply company owners, competition judges, carving instructors, etc., all willing to share their expertise with you, "FREE" for the asking. [But you really DO have to ask so please feel free to join our ongoing information exchange.] (NOTE: Be sure to reply to the simple questionaire that comes with your membership application. IT IS MANDATORY!)

We are proud to have initiated the first "World Fish Carving Championships - Invitational Challenge" which made its debut during the 2005 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Three fish species were selected for the 2009 World Fish Carving Championships "Invitational Challenge": Saltwater - Queen Angelfish; Warmwater - Largemouth Bass; Coldwater - Arctic or European Grayling. (Competitors in this category must have been an active member of FC2 since December 31, 2008.)

The 2009 World Show is now over. But it's NOT TOO LATE to start making plans to participate in the 2011 World Show. See you there?
