NY Carp Tourney and Vacation
 

I just got back from New York where I spent two weeks straight fishing for carp. My trip started up in Baldwinsville at the Seneca river where the Wild Carp Companies hosted a weeks worth of carp tournaments. I participated in the 50 hour marathon event with my fishing partner Attila Agh. It was our first year fishing the tournament and we made a decent showing. There were 46 teams and unfortunately we were one of the last teams to draw a peg so we got stuck with a bad spot. We still managed to place in the top 10 and I caught the big mirror carp of the tournament which ended up paying for the trip. We teamed up with 3 other groups led by pay lake fishing legend Tom Brooks and our other teams took 2nd, 3rd, and the big 4 prize. It was great working with some of the best carp fisherman around and it was cool to see our teams do so well. After the tournament I spent some time at my buddy Ethan's place up at Lake Ontario, then we spent memorial day weekend up at the St. Laurence. The fishing was good at the lake house but we didn't catch any big fish, all were in the 15-25 pound range. The St. Laurence was dead but it is a beautiful place and we still had a blast. In 3 straight days of fishing i landed 6, Ethan landed 5, and the other 2 guys landed one a piece. Again, no big fish. All in all it was a great vacation and I can't wait to go back up there.

The photos look fine on my computer. Try hitting (ctrl -) or (ctrl +) to zoom in and out with your web browser.

There's nothing wrong with the photo's.
I just have to zoom out to the max to get the whol epicture all on the screen, because they are displaying at 2,048px × 1,536px.
That is overkill for web viewing.
My 02.

I guess you need a big post for big fish:D

Re: NY Carp Tourney and Vacation
 

Those are babies. It's the other way around: big photos for small fish, small photos for big fish :D
