Deal Lake Report 4/29
Hit Deal Lake yesterday for a hour or two. Tried for bass with a senko with no hits. Went by the train tracks and saw tons of carp up to 20 lbs spawning in the shallows. There is tons of garbage on the shores of the lake and it disqusts me. If their was less trash the lake would be much cleaner. By chance I am going to try for carp there tomorrow and would like to know what lb test leader and hooks to use?

I use a 6 or 4 regular Eagle Claw non bait holder hook. I always use 4 lb. test, but depending on the conditions, the drag on your reel, and your skill...you might want to use 6 lb. or more. Carp have no teeth so ditch the leader you don't need it. Use the least amount of weight you can get away with. Hooking and fighting a Carp is more fun then landing one Bring a net if you want to get a picture, and good luck

If you feel you need a leader then by all means. Carp fishing like most fishing can be as simple or as sophisticated as you like I use mono only, I'm simple.
