hotsky Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Spent a day fishing at Binbrook today from my inflatable. Weather was beautiful, most of the time wind was almost non existent, making for some very calm water, (wind and inflatables don't mix well lol). Caught 2 crappies trolling with spinners and lost another one boatside. Also lost a nice bass...:/ Pulled into a bay where I caught my first carp before, by less them ideal method - I saw it 2 feet from shore in weeds so I dropped hook with corn on it where the fish was and sure enough when I pulled the line it was hooked. My fiance said 'that's cheating' <img src="http://ontariofishingcommunity.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif" class="bbc_emoticon" alt="">. Today after a few frustrating tried to hook another carp it finally happened! I dropped a hair rig in a spot where I saw a lot of bubbles, no real expectations of it catching it, but after a few minutes I see the bobber diver under with full force! I grabbed the rod and started reeling it in, but I set the bobber 5 ft from the sinker (+ another foot till the hook) so was having a hard time bringing the fish close enough for me to net it. It put up a good fight; trying to go under a boat, changing directions ect., then I finally managed to scoop it up. I tried taking other/better pics after, but my hands were wet and it didn't work (stupid touch screen phone!) Too bad you cant even see it all, it looked bigger in person I swear! lol<br><br><a href="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/217/20120905142157.jpg/" class="bbc_url" title="External link" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/3305/20120905142157.jpg"></a><br><br>Uploaded with <a href="http://imageshack.us" class="bbc_url" title="External link" rel="nofollow">ImageShack.us</a> Edited September 6, 2012 by Gray_Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
