[Question about a specific piece of carp tackle]

I might give a 3 piece rod a shot.  Was always worried about the integrity of a 3 piece rod.  99% of my rods are 2 piece so maybe I just need to get over it ?.  I always wanted to get a telescopic Daiwa for traveling given that I've had great experience with Daiwa tenkara poles but something about a telescopic regular fishing pole gives me the heebie-jeebies.

[Question about a specific piece of carp tackle]

Folks,

Had a quick question about a very specific piece of carp tackle.  I'm looking for a Chub Outkast Stalker 6 ft. 2 piece rod.  Any ideas as to where I can order it from other than harrissportsmail.  Just wanted something compact for a change that I can travel with.  Taking my 10 footers everywhere if not that fun ?.

Thanks for the welcomes folks!

Ty for the facebook links, will join soon!  

Yes, I'm in the twin cities area, in the vicinity of Woodbury so Mississippi ends up being a prime target, especially since you never know what you'll get :).

Makes me sad to hear about Canon river, the park is beautiful and served as a lovely place to fish till a few years ago, I think last year there was a Koi virus as well that killed a lot of carp in Cannon/Lake Byllesby.  I think I'll try King's Power plant and some spots on Snake river this time around!  In the past I've fished in India/Germany/NY/Washington ( I certainly miss Niagara Falls, NY fishing due to salmon runs!).  Saw a couple of people fish for it at Elmo but never took my carp tackle there, maybe I should!

Anywho! Can't wait for spring :D!

Stumbled upon these forums while searching for something and am fairly surprised.  Always felt like the lone carp fisherman in most of Minnesota, so this is rather pleasant.

I mostly fish the Mississippi due to proximity to home.  I do tenkara fishing when I get time.  My 14 footer with a 6.6 hp engine is too weak for the river so I hardly use it. Scope of where I fish is limited to St.Croix, Minnesota river, Canon river(horrid luck there last year, including lake Byllesby, it's as if someone fished the bloody place out) and good ol' Mississippi.  I mostly fish for carp and cats where I can and I usually practice catch and release(nobody can say no to a couple of rainbows or crappies).    

Regardless, good to be here!  Hoping I can find some new spots (especially looking to find a place where I can catch buffalo!) and share some experiences of my own.

Cheers-
