The actor who plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films is back in New York this week
for the annual St. Lawrence International Junior Carp Tournament:
This week, a hundred young carp anglers and their families descend on the North Country for the inaugural St. Lawrence International Junior Carp Tournament. Organizers hope the event will make the St. Lawrence a premier fishing destination.
if acting doesn't work out:
BBC: Do you want a career as an actor?
Felton: Whatever life throws at me I'll take it and be grateful for it as well. I'd like to own my own garage and my own fishery. I'd also like to be a professional fisherman. But I'll take whatever happens.
Rummaging through the St. Lawrence tournament site, I stumbled on several high-quality pictures of Tom and his prize catches. Some I had never seen before:
(and another "angle" - pun intended) (and another view)* From Tom Felton UK

I am glad he seemed to have enjoyed the tournament. My whole family enjoys the sport, only not enough to go to a carp tourney. It would be sad to have him not play Draco. He does so well. I hope it is just a rumor.

Yes he is red that's normal when you're fisihing even if he wore sunblock he is so white that the sun will brake through it! And what is that about him not being in GoF? He is perfect for Draco and Lucius we couldn't get used to a different face right? Tom we would miss you too much! You play the part excellent.

You people think fish is disgusting? I live in the country, it's the only thing to do here. There's a fish hatchery here, I really wish he'd come see it. My friend's uncle owns it, he lives down the lane from me, he could take me to see Tom! I love to fish. Tom looks fine in those pictures. I like his hair when it's short. He is also a terrific actor. Brilliant.
My grandpa's a carp fisher for a hobby (he's retired) and I wish I could get him to drive up to NY. Unfortunately, he hates any city, so I doubt it would be possible.

I just returned from Raystown Lake. It is the largest lake in Pennsylvania. There was an area at 7 points Marina where the thousands of carp hang out together at the dock and visitor feed them dog food. They go crazy! I can't believe to hook one of them and pull up in... They are huge! I heard they don't taste very well. Anyway, very cool for Tom! Fishing is wonderful! I hope Tom stays with us, and does all the movies!!

Tom is amazing! He has so many talents and this just goes to prove it! I hope he continues to play Draco in the films, and if not I'll always remember him as the original! I couldn't even imagine someone talking his place and doing a better job. But I hope everything works out! Plus I was so mad because he was just recently right accross the river from me for that fishing competion! I really wish I could have met him, he seems like a really nice person ;)

Love the pics, and big fish even though I can't eat fish because i just don't like fish, and I don't know why.
gryfgirl- I know I heard those rumors too, but that is just what they are he said in a interview they were wrong. I was shocked when I saw that but he cleared it up.
