dsn Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 AS you can see there are some big fish in there ! These shots turned out pretty good so I'll be adding them to my files. DSN Enjoy your day!! Cause it might rain the next.
JohnF Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 So would a group of about 30 or 40 carp milling about on the surface in 4-5' of water be spawning. Please say no because when we were kids we thought that was very cool to wade in amongst them and let them splash and writhe all around our chests and chins. We'd ease up close to the school in a boat and then slip overboard and join the party. Kinda sours the memory if in fact we were wallowing in fishy fornication. JF
Rich Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 They're just spawning NOW? Where were these pics taken?
Marko Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 Those are pretty awesome shots!! They have been doing that for weeks in this lake where i chase them. Carp fishing has been really weird this summer. John what are u doing swimming with carp lol
Victor Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 Very neat shots dsn. I hope that they're done soon ... it's been a while already and I need a carp fix BAD. JohnF ... I didn't know you're into that stuff. LOL
Leecher Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 Good job dsn, the pics sure turned out great Thanks for sharing Leechman
JohnF Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 Very neat shots dsn. I hope that they're done soon ... it's been a while already and I need a carp fix BAD. JohnF ... I didn't know you're into that stuff. LOL I didn't either. I was about 12 or 13 at the time. It seemed like a fun thing. Who knew about the procreative process, and how messy it got. I'm thinking seriously about going for another shower right now. We also used to catch little snakes and hide them under our shirts so the warmth would keep them calm. We needed them for snake bombs to get even with the boaters who messed with us. I suppose next someone's gonna tell me the little beggars were fornicating in my shirt. JF
Photoz Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 Carp spawn when the water temps reach the high 60's. I've caught 'em, spilling roe all over the boardwalk at the ol' Lakeview plant in early August, about 5 years ago when we had another wet, cool summer! In the shallower lakes & tribs, the water will get up to temp as early as late May, but in Lake Ontario, only the small bays and creek & rivermouths will be much more that the mid-60's even at this late date.
highdrifter Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 OMG. Talk about carp boner land!! This is supposed to be a family site!! HAHAH HD
JohnF Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 OMG. Talk about carp boner land!! EEEWWW!!!! I thought those were little fins. JF
Rich Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 They start spawning my local Lake Erie tribs in late April/Early May most years, full fledged spawn by early June and I've never seen them still spawning past July. Just weird for me but I guess Lake O is a much cooler lake.
Mike the Pike Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 Ah imagine all those fin fights for the female Great shots man so when you ahavin little ones
