Marko Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Gone out carp fishing yesterday, had some time, gf was working. After about 2 hours of fishing, she calls me and tells me she has a migraine and that i have to go and get her from work. I did manage to hook into some fish, went 3/5. Ended up catching a nice size smallmouth on corn and lost couple suckers using worms. I think they were suckers, there were bunches of them and were all shinning silver. Here are pics of the fish that i caught Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marko Posted August 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 The reel is pretty good. I like it cuz the drag is at the bottom part of it, its easier to adjust it when u have a big fish peeling your line out. Fish were caught at St Marys again. Fairly close to London, just south of Stratford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rage Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 (edited) From what i see, as far as were the carp are laying you must be a novice carp angler. A seasoned carp angler would never subject carp to concrete which i belive it is. Putting them on soil that has heavy grass is ok but not just on concrete, Carp thrashing around like they do on a hard surface such as concrete can do serious injury to there insides. A padded weigh sling mat combination should be an item on your list of gear to purchase if you continue to carp angle. Even a plastic babies crib mattres would make a great un-hooking mat. They may only be CARP but they deserve respect. I am a seasoned carp angler and dont get me wrong i am not giving you criticism just pointing out how i feel about placing carp on hard surfaces that can cause them harm and injury. You do have a nice catch there and hope you catch many more. Cheers and Tightlines. Rodpody... Edited August 8, 2007 by Rodpody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
