Great pics. Carp are hard fighters and fun to catch.

Congrats on the catch. They are fighters.

I just had a can of mixed veggies. Put some variety on the hook and they are bound to take it. Went back at dark and caught 3 more big ones and two turtles.

When I was a kid the Fort Worth Anglers club would have a Carp tournament at Marine Creek. Great Fun. Get some Cottonseed Meal and mix it with some Whole grain Wheat bread in the water you fishing. Unravel a couple cotton balls and mix into the dough ball to help hold it on you hook.
They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!

As long as it tugs the line it's fun. We used Wheaties with water and mashed into dough balls.

Believe it or not but they are good eating!!! The secret is to can them using a pressure cooker & you can eat the bones and all. We used to call them Red River Trout. You can make patties out of them once cooked and it's hard to tell the difference between the carp & real salmon out of the can. They are fun to catch.

Big Red and cornflakes, mix up and make balls. I’ve heard it works.

I did a ton of carp fishing on the San Gabriel back in my teen years. I suspect more folks would fish for them if they knew how good they fight

Is it wrong to admit that may have been my first thought when I found them up shallow?
