Just got home from an all day trip to the lake. It was a long, hot day on the water. The morning found some great fishing for spotted bass and some bluegill and as the morning wore on, the carp started getting curious and came into the shallows to eat. They were shy at first but then it was like someone turned on the switch. I ended up with 10 carp, but nothing big. But there were some in the high 20's low 30lb range. Just gotta figure out the big boys. I caught most of my fish on the Janssen leech pattern in brown. It was dark as I was motoring/rowing my pram back to the dock. Couldn't see squat in the dark until I saw the headlights from the cars. Stayed out way later than I wanted to but I was way down the lake. I wasn't worried about getting cold. The temperature registered 84 degrees on my cars gauge and that was around 9pm tonight.
Tomorrow I'm taking alittle more than a 5 wt rod, just incase I hook the carp of my life.
Photo's tomorrow (i hope)
