    Default Carp Pic

    Evening!

    Had a picture of a carp you might want to see. Landed this big boy with a 5' ultralight with 8 lb test. Took 25 minutes to land but sure was fun.

    Carp are one of the fightingest fish in fresh water. They just dont quit. Congrats on the catch. I bet it was fun.

    He was 14 lbs. I was using a orange and chartruse curly tail skirt on a black 1/24 crappie jig. I had tipped the jig with a white crappie nibble and he took it almost as soon as it hit the water. I had to roll the drag almost all the way off to land him. He is definitely not as big as I've seen but sure was fun...

    Congrats on a very nice catch!

    Carp are great sport fish, and there are some very dedicated Carp anglers here in Indiana!

    Its been a long time since I fished for carp. I will fish for them this summer, do remember how hard they do fight. Any new baits that I should try, used to use worms, corn and wheaties?
