Carp

[GreenCanada]

So I went out to a storm retention pond that is way back in the bush beside a 400 series highway last night and hammered some 5-10lb carp. You could see hundreds across the pond splashing, surfacing, or generally causing a ruckous.

 

I was wondering if people would be willing to provide me with a couple spots to drop a line for some carp in Burlington. Either in L. Ontario or not, doesn't matter. Just want to give the girlfriend a chance to catch a beast

 

You can PM me if you have some info you'd like to share and I promise not to leave garbage lying around!

 

Any help would be appreciated!

anywhere has carp... as you said even the runoff ditches/ponds have them. try lasalle, fishermans pier, valley inn, pier 4, etc etc etc.

Terry and I found the haven, this morning. I could not believe how many there were in such a small area.It was crazy.

OH! Just thought of another spot I'll send you another PM.

You people are awesome! I appreciate the tips

 

I didn't get out carp fishing in Burlington this weekend, but I did try my luck off a pier I had been eyeing for quite some time.

 

Managed a 15lb chinook on Saturday afternoon! Surprising to say the least, as I figured they would be out over the deeper water still. Then this morning I thought why not try my luck again, and slammed a 30"+ steelhead. Due to my lack of pier fishing equipment (no big landing net to lift them the 6ft) no pictures to prove my worth, but the experience has me lickin' my chops again to 1) buy a big net, 2) get my butt back down there.
