Nice fish.I know that pond!
Did you see the orange and bright yellow ones?
They get crazy around spawning time.
There used to be nice nice size panfish in there.

nice, i'll be trying for my second carp trip this season, first time i was a bit too early and although i could see them there they really weren't eating at all i guess.

For what it's worth, I was at a local pond Sunday evening throwing trout magnets for panfish and bass when my kids and I started catching small carp and big goldfish on the magnets. I never had them hit artificials before. Good fight on ultralight gear.
