What we would call dough bait.

Yep, that is George Washington’s carp dough bait recipe. Wheaties, just about any dry cereal will do. They eat the carp out of the in Europe.


They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason! nidea

I too didn't realize how great they fought until I caught one that was about 25-30lbs while catfishing this weekend. Definitely a fun fight on light tackle. I was pretty surprised when it sucked down bloodbait under a cork. Thought I had a big blue for a minute then realized from the fight it definitely wasn't a cat.

Yes it does. My wife prefers to catch carp over anything. I like to bass fish but she will sit on the bank all day catching carp.

I bet that was a blast catching those big carp!!

Also, I am still amazed to see how many people cannot launch or load a boat without it taking them at least 10-15 minutes. It is just mind boggling really.
I can launch my boat in under 5 minutes and load it in probably less by myself at the lake in most circumstances.
All I can say is please practice backing a trailer at home until you can do it right before going to the public ramps! lmao

OH, and when it is dark...…...turn your damn healights off when on the ramp so that other people can see what they are doing backing their boat in instead of being blinded by bright lights angled up at you! taz


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!! And it aint just the weekend warriors that are guilty of that either. When I use to fish tournaments you would see it happen at every single event and those are guys that should know better.
