I'll be there to catch some fish, and meet new carpers!
-
So last weekend I took 3 of my squash students fishing, as they were bugging me about it for a while. They were convinced, that fishing was all abbout bobber+worm= bass. Here are some pictures from that day. I got to tell you, see the joy on their faces was priceless. One of them got almost janked into the water by a mid-20 river monster :-)

If there was a carp fishing competition on the moon, you'd be the first in line to enter.
(That's a compliment)!
Great efford, and I wish you a Happy New Year Frank!

Tom! Sorry for the misspell. With my 9 month old daughter in my lap, it wasn't an easy job.
My session started at 8:00AM this morning, in NJ, at the Rahway River. The water temperature was 45 degree Fahrenheit. I have fished 4 hours.I chose to set up 3 different rigs, for fun experimental purpose.
-Helicopter rig: 2 oz led, short 3-4 inch fluorocarbon hook length, size 6 Pro Logic hook.
Bait: 1 My own 2.chow(trout pellets) with hot sauce
Pick Up: 1 piece of fake buoyant corn (tried to vary the colors during the day)
-Pay Lake Rig: I have learned this method just recently from a guy named:Sir Top Brooks. I haven't used it up until today, so I am not feeling it yet. This man was very kind to show me, and tell me so much info, I was most impressed with him.
very short 3 inch double #17 lbs hook length because of the cold water temperature, and the giant scary single hook.
bait: 1.My own 2.Chow with hot sauce
pick up: whole/half plain corn puff
-Feeder rig(euro stye)4lbs hook length, size 14 colmic hook, small TopMixUSA cage feeder.
bait: 1. My own 2. chow with hot sauce
pick up: 1.fresh bread 2. pieces of corn puffs, that were treated with some fresh hemp oil 3.different flavored sweet corn
Results:
-On the Helicopter rig, nothing all day!
-Pay lake Rig: Constant nibbles on the line, that indicated that small fish was munching on the pick up, but nothing strong enough, for me to set the hook.
-Feeder rig: 8 fish, all white suckers, but not a single carp bite at all.
Pick Up: Bread by far the best, then corn Puff. Sweetcorn, and pop up was useless today. If I have used red wigglers, then I would of just hammered those suckers today.
Bait: I never understand fish meal, and those who swear by that in wild American waters, in a short session without pre feeding. I believe, that it's effectiveness is significant in Pay lakes, just as all over Europe, but in wild water I think there are better baits out there all year around for carp.
I will experiment with it some more sometimes this year, as I think, that fish meal based baits, such as trout pellets(chow) might be one of the best bait for carp, at certain times of the year, but only when when pre fed 1-2 -3 days with it.
I have caught many carps on January 1. at the same spot under similar conditions, in the past few years, but almost every time, when I did catch them, I was using bread or worm as pick up, and liquidized bread with cornmeal as bait.

Jim always delivers!!!

Congratulation for all participants, and organizers.
The success of this event helps the popularity of carp angling in the United States. Special congrats to the winners, and to the capturer of the giant fish.

Very well done, creating this backup of enjoable memory for the future. Good old European party sound is awsome catch as well.

well done!

Yo Matt, Congrats again buddy. I'll never forget, as this was the heaviest carp I have seen until this morning. It is funny, how much bigger it looked, after netting it.
I am due for a 30+, had it with those 20+ slim male fighters. I want the fat chick
