hey you change your name back lol! from what i've heard, they do catch fish but they aren't anything special ...

i would highly recommend you to use a hair rig... they aren't that hard to tie ... the only times i have lost fish was because of poor knot/weak hook/dull hook (angler error) if you do use it on a hook though, i would say hide most of the hook inside the bollie and leave a small section of the point open ... that way the carp would somewhat hook itself and give you a chance to get a better hookset before it spits everything back out ... i might be wrong ... i guess i am wrong after reading steve's response haha

thanks for finally making me feel better for getting skunked all the time that is funny though lol ... maybe i should buy some skunk repellent and spray some on myself before i head out everytime (do they even exist?)

i've lost many fish because of a weak/bent/dull hook as well ... lost a good sized one over the weekend when it straightened my hook ... i guess i applied alittle too much force with the pliers when unhooking another one caught earlier with the same hook :S ... good luck tomorrow!

congratulations on the PB! gotta try targeting them sometime

UL rod + Carp that's gotta be fun nice fish!

haven't seen greg's face in a report for a long time! kinda suck to drive 1.5 hours and then find out everything's dead ... at least you guys got into some fish though!

one fish isn't a bad day ... and it's a 20+ too! was that a carp in your first pic?

here's my PB in your net ... for reference ... to be honest now yours defintely looks bigger

told you to buy a new scale lol! congrats on the PB! too bad you couldn't get a weight on it though ... i'll give it a 25lb 1oz haha! i lost a real good one today that might have been my new PB ... straightened my hook during the fight ... so "2 fish in 3 hours" is bad eh? guess what... i fished a total of ... 11 hours today and i got 3 fish in total ... all in the teens " well glad that you shook off that skunk and good for cliff/bly for sharing your swim!

that's some good size and numbers for one night! congratulations on your PB! now you have 3oz over mine

hey greg, do you have the car? .. i'm heading to the hammy for some carp but i'm coming from the waterloo end so i can't give u a ride.

time on the water is always nice too bad you didn't catch anything but it'll only get better!! did u get the try out ur new musky combo?

congratulations! now you can have a stress-free and fish-ful summer

whoah you're "Victor" too? lol thanks for the info ... does anyone have their toll free number though? ... if not i'll just call and ask haha.

Hey guys & girls ... does anyone happen to have Fishing World's 1-800 number? Wanted to check a few prices before i head down there. thanks!

we missed ya! nice mirror carp!

it seems like you guys never get skunked ... man it's been too long since my bed time was 8pm .. that's a nice rod/reel combo she's got there

where did it break exactly bly? last weekend when i went out with my dad i had the same thing happen to me and ended up loosing 8-9 fish ... everytime we would fight the fish for about 4-5 seconds and reeling in realized that the line broke right above the eye of the hook. i was using 10lb berkley vanish ... right at where i was fishing there shouldn't be too much problems with zebra mussles so i was blaming myself for not tying the hair rigs properly at first ... however after i've asked help from a guy nearby it still happened :S ... i'm planning on changing the line and see if it happens again ...

unless i'm misinterpreting what you're saying ... you know that it doesn't mean you can targeting them during close season if you don't keep any right?

how do you keep yourself away from OFC? i really need to learn how to do that especially when i'm having my midterms this week lol ... no way lol ... i still take my "study breaks"

be careful ... once you start there's no turning back ... this place is addictive lol. welcome aboard.

34" is a good sized fish ... you should ask wolfville how many times we got skunked trying to find them since last year "one last cast" never fails haha!

that IS a really cool salmon shot and whoah that laker is huge! welcome aboard!

nice fish! ... it's gotta be tough landing that beast with all the snags
