Had the morning free today, so I decide to put in few hours of fishing. After dropping off my kids at school I headed to the canal. Caught a few species of fish today. Biggest was a chunker largemouth bass, my guess it around 5 lbs or so. Couple channel cat, and a stinking carp. All fish caught on night crawler and shad like bait.

Oatums outa here, thanks for reading.

haha thanks for the post Oat. did you keep the carp for bait for next weekend?????

Grass carp is a big no no. That's a $350 fine if caught with one. we will get our own carp next weekend. I got a few spot in mind, brink a can of yellow corn.

its only illegal if you get caught! and by the fine beig so high that must mean that its a good bait. im sold. oat we need to target grass carp next weekend

no oat needs to target them before we get there so we can fish them when we get there

Fresh is best, we'll get some next weekend.

that carp looked beat up. i need a few of those for the pond.
i still dont know 100% if ill make it down there yet
