9 lber
Cooked up my first batch of homemade corn meal bait for this year today, then went carping in 69 degree Carnegie Lake this evening in the cold rain. Threw out a can of corn for chum. Saw two carp jump. A 9 lb mirror carp picked up the bait, swam away and hooked itself. If my drag was tighter, it would have pulled my rod into the lake. The fish stayed out of the snags and I was able to beach it. Donated the carp to the Ukrainian National Home. Only had one other bite. Didn’t get a hit on a jig. The secret ingredient in the corn meal bait is organic black mulberry syrup from Turkey.

Re: 9 lber
Nice catch, I have to try that sometime!
Like the old school reel, Garcia-Mitchell 300? I first fished with a 308. Dave |

Re: 9 lber
We all trust that you inform the Ukrainians, and others whom eat your donated carp, of the consumption advisories due to the toxic contaminants in the carps' flesh.
Generally: Low Risk Individuals - 1 meal per month. High Risk Individuals (women of child bearing age and children) DO NOT EAT See: https://www.nj.gov/dep/dsr/fish-advisories.pdf |
