urbanangler1990 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) went out last night(sat evening) to catch some carp, arrived at 7pm, fished till 8 and didnt get a bump, i losing hope till i get a light hit, ok so im thinking its just a dreadful bullhead, id rather cut the line then bring one of those in haha, i grab my rod and notice the line went slack i reel up, but dont feel much weight till i set the hook and bam the war is on, took me down to the end of my line, ( yup same line as last trip, same capacity, cant afford new line right now, went with what i had) so i litterally watch the run stop at the very very last wrap around the spool, i kept tightning the drag once nearing the end, it worked barely, that sure gave me a sweat, ok back to main problem, the carp ran right into some bushes and trees right beside me, dammnnn,ok so i strip down to my boxers again, and i edge my way to the cover, i manage to free up the line, and change its direction to head out in the open bay, phewww im in the clear now, lol, 15 min fight and i bring in this beauty, yep i got the sign and measuring tape, not sure how clearly the tape is seen but it was a 32 incher WARNING THS LAST PIC MAY BE GRAPHIC,THIS PIC WAS REAL INTERESTING, I SET THE CAM DOWN ON A LEDGE, GRAB THE CARP AND MOVE BACK INTO THE SHOT, AT LEAST I TRY, lol Edited June 3, 2007 by urbanangler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 If it will keep me from seeing you in your boxer shorts I will bring you a spool of your favorite line. The only catch is it will be delivered at Lak Air. Send a PM with the poundage and type of line you use if you are going to make it to Lak Air. Nice fish glad to see you are getting out to the water.

ccmtcanada Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 LOL...one of these days we're all gonna read in the newspapers "Local Angler Arrested for Indecent Exposure" Great job out there UA!! Sounded like my Friday night that's for sure! Congrats on your fish...took some work, but you got him in. Oh and as far as bullhead are concerned, don't cut your line because 1...you cant afford to work with any less line and 2, it's not worth losing a hook for!!!
