[snagged in outlet 3]

Went up to my carp hole last night and fished from 6-9 PM. Caught a little channel cat on the first cast and didn't catch a carp till 8:30. The wind was out of the north so the weather was beautiful but the carp were either cruizing or spawning. There was a bunch of them doing there thing in what seemed like 4 inches of water.

The slough I fish is way down from normal and I heard it's because there are no water releases on the Missouri up north. Around here in St. Charles, the best river fishing comes in the spring when the water is coming up, but that hasn't happened because of this politcal water fight between states. I've lived here my whole life and can't remember when the river didn't flood in the spring. Arghh!!!!! Politicians!!!!!

Snagged.
