:D Went with my dad and met Crash at 50 point to try for some trout. The fish were not hungry today so we said bye to crash and headed for home to have lunch. Then Dad and I went to get some worms and try for carp in the river. Four mins. after my line was in I got this sucker.

I ended up catching 5 more like it. Then I got a nice 23" carp.

After a while I started to catch some red horse suckers. My first one was 22" and then I got another 24". That was my personal best until about a half hour later I caught a 25" one.

Dad got some white and red suckers too. He also got 3 good carp with his biggest for the year a 29.5" one that was fat. So we caught 17 fish before we finished the afternoon. Pieter I dont know if you are busy Sunday afternoon. My dad says he might be back from work at 3 in the afternoon and we could fish carp for a couple of hours.

Dad checked the weather for Sunday and it looks too wet to fish. We change the clocks tonight so we will have more daylight to fish! :D I will have to wait two weeks to fish for salmon when my dad is off on a weekend. So for now I will keep catching some carp. I hope you have fun in your new boat..
