Default flood fish pic

Caught my biggest fish for 2018 yesterday evening in Carnegie Lake, a 34" 17.5 lb female spawned out common carp that hit my homemade corn meal bait on a #8 red treble hook and 12 lb test line. Also landed an 8.5 lb carp on my last cast for the day. That's 40 carp that I caught this year. They fight hard for a very long time.

I've been catching big carp in Oradell reservoir on home made corn meal balls using treble hooks for years. Only problem, the snapping turtles also like that bait. Some of them are 35lbs+. They do fight fight hard and never give up. Catch them from the shoreline. They all go back to fight another day.
As a kid, my Dad took me to Kensico reservoir for a day of carp fishing using a PENN 200 surfmaster reel spooled with dacron line.(still have that reel and is serving me well on the party boats).Eastern European favorite back in the days.
See ya soon, RAMMIE..
