Good pic's and a good play by play.
The trip is a toss up between "Boy, I wish I was there", and "Damn, that must have been cold".

bluegill and their bones....chicken and their bones. Basicly the same type of garbage.
I'll bet a game warden or cop wouldn't agree.

Be careful throwing garbage in the water.
It could be ticket time.

They are good warm weather pics.
The shrimp boil looks good.

Even though the local waters have their share of turtles here, I've never been bothered by them while carp fishing. There have been a couple of occasions when a painted turtle or mud turtle has swam along the shore and I fed it kernals of sweet corn from the can. They will stop and put down a surprising number of kernals. But as far as having them bother carp baits, as they do live or cut baits, hasn't happened.

Wind: The Anglers Friend?
The old poem goes:
When the wind is in the north
The skillful fisher goes not forth
When the wind is in the south
It blows the bait in the fishes mouth
When the wind is in the west
Then it's the very best
But when the wind is in the east
It blows no good to man nor beast
Some people swear by the wind. I have other opinions. Here are some of my windy observations some may agree with.
The magazines will tell you that the in-the-know-fisherman knows to fish on the downwind side of lakes. Because the wind blows abundant food to these shores. Unfortunately most fish do not know this. What I experience on these windy shores is a lot of floating seaweed & debris blown at your lines. And big annoying waves.
A windy day may be more exciting to some because of all the false strikes you get. On a good day, the wind will have those big rollers coming in, and this wave action will keep the rod tips bouncing and those indicators jumping constantly.
You will be able to cover the margins much more effectively on a windy day. Mainly because you won't be able to cast much past them. If you are a freeliner, forget it. And chumming on a day like this? You'll be picking the corn out of your hair.
A windy day might be considered good for your health. Because of all the excercise you will get making those extra trips back to the truck for more clothes.
Or, if you have canoed out to an island, and are now windbound and wondering how you'll get back as hypothermia is setting in, you'll be keeping your cardiovascular rate up by stomping in place and vigorous hand rubbing.
I'll take nice sunny, warm, & calm conditions any day of the week.

You said it all. Fishing is always good. When it works like it did for you, it is great.!

Ahh, it looks like it was a nice, warm day.

It was in the lake because it was involved in a drug deal shooting gone bad.
Now that you have posted it on the net, the police in your area are, at this moment, tracking you down to get the gun for evidence.

It's that slump time of year!!
It will pick up as the fall goes on.
The best time at this game is always spring & early summer.
Hang in there.

That's one long, lean fish.

It sounds like your water is loading up with zebra mussels. Same thing is happening here. Places that used to be real good are about impossible to land a fish at now because of line cuts. And that is with 50# power pro.
The sad thing is the zebra's are definately on the increase all over.
And don't take it to hear. We all have days like yours now and then. Fortunately not frequently, but enough so it keeps you on your toes.

These are all really great places men, but for those of you that have been there, I'm sure you'll all agree that the most breathtaking spot is the Troy shoreline along the Hudson.

That's a bum looking eye for sure. There aren't any nuclear waste dumps nearby are there?

Mulatto carp perhaps?
I've never seen one of those around here.

What do these guys do with these huge fish after the pictures?
Are they good to eat, or do they just get buried?
-Ken

its a shame that they will probably be extinct in well within our life spans!
I agree. A ripping shame!

Ah I love the US for your carp and Wendys bugers and dougtnuts!
Our carp fishing is a healthy pastime for sure. But watch those burgers and doughnuts. If they don't outright kill you, they'll turn you into a lump.

When I retire from CAG, I'm gonna open up a shop and sell carp saddles.With the pension you'll receive from CAG upon retiring, you won't need to open up a shop.

What size batteries does it take?

Its a black carp and about 150+lbs of it
And where do black carp hang out?

Now there's a fish I'd like to be able to catch.
