Today...

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Today...

Post by Steady Eddy »

Yesterday, the wife and I drove to Paddletales and had my new baitcast reel spooled up. I bought a few lures, in hopes of enticing a few pike tomorrow. I ended up going today due to the honey-do list being complete. The wife came. It happens. We fished the Castor. As I was washing various lures, new and old, she hooked into a decent sized carp. They were everywhere. It ended up coming un-buttoned. Needless to say, I switched to worm on the bottom and a spinning outfit. Today I caught my first ever/PB Carp. I'll try and attach a pic. I've never had any luck at this attach a pic game.... Yeah, I give up!
Anyways, Castor River, loads of hungry Carp!!!

No need to use the image tab above for pb. While your pic is showing on photobucket (not the thumbnail) just left click on the image box and it copies the pic, then go to your post here and right click to paste it in your post. Hope that helps
Nice carp btw.

Cheers

Mav, was just Laying down looking at it I'm sure. Lol
I was puzzled too by his comment, so checked my Mac, ipad and phone, and all were correct.
Does anyone else see a difference between my pic and mav's? Just curious. And I like a puzzle now and again.

And no problem, steady

You brought your wife to Paddletales. Very classy place. I hope you let her pay for the lures. 8)
What your mother said about eating fish from the Castor ... she is absolutely right. :|
Don't do it. Mother knows best. :wink:
