Ham Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 I did adult stuff most of the day and got a lot of stuff done, but pretty mad I didn’t get to fish more. I had a lot of fun in two hours and added a species to the annual tally. I also did something pretty strange. I was soaking a Crawler hoping for a catfish. A breeze was easing the boat along. I saw the line tighten up a wound down into the fish. Fish had some weight, but wasn’t pulling at all. It came up and was a good size carp, but not putting out any effort at all. It rolled over and the entire body cavity was gone. I managed to catch a dead fish in the mouth with a circle hook. CajunAngler rides me pretty hard for having “dead hands” sometimes, and he’d Be right this time. Dang fish died and rotted before I noticed. I got to catch a Red Ear so the trip was a success even though I only caught 15. BilletHead, JestersHK and curtisce 2 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
Members moturkey Posted June 20, 2018 Members Posted June 20, 2018 I would have been happy to hook a rotted carp this weekend... and double the number of fish I caught. Ham 1
Ham Posted June 20, 2018 Author Posted June 20, 2018 I wish I had shot a video. I took multiple photos and they are all crap. It was truly horrific. Aquatic feeding did him no favors at all. Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
curtisce Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Get Billethead down there he loves carp especially rotten ones BilletHead and Ham 1 1 The answer may not lie at the bottom of a glass, but you should always check
BilletHead Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Curt beat me too it, Ham come on down I have just the place to take you. North wind tomorrow should make for better fishing. If we could get Curt there also to be the net man it would be epic. I will wave my guide fee and take photos this trip. Curt is a real expert making ceviche so shore lunch is a must, BilletHead "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"
