Carp Are Alive & Well In The Otonabee

[Photoz]

Well, my eye is on the mend, and I'm back behind the wheel again. My bud from across the pond called and said he was going up to his favorite fishin' hole today, so, even though I won't be doin' any carp fightin', nothing says I can't watch. The Brit landed about 5 & Rodpoly another 3 . . . I got a chance to play a couple of 'em for a few minutes, but didn't push my luck.

 

The first one was small . . . 10 - 12 pounds, but did splash around the surface, and made good account of itself.

 

 

Steve finally got 'im under control, and he was soon in the net . . . . . . .

 

 

 

And soon was on his way, to fight another day.

 

 

The day was PERFECT . . . the bite was steady, the fish good & healthy . . . no sign of any more of the 'carp plague,' but over-all, not very big.

Good to hear you got out and enjoying some carp fishing, even though this time you were a spectator.

Hey Photos

This is Hammercarp from CAG. I haven't seen you around our neck of the woods. ( Hamilton Harbour). We met for the first time on Eastport several years ago. You showed me how to tie a hair rig. I am now the provincial chairman. Beans regularly posts on our forum. What happened to your eye. I wish you a speedy recovery.

Great post, nice pictures.

Glad to hear your eye is feeling better...
