Muskie Adventure Tours "Carping For Gold In The Ct River"

It's getting late in the year, but the Carp are still here....

Head West young man is what the phrase used to be when panning for Gold, it hasn't changed.

Because of these cold mornings, I knew they would be back, Man we were so right.

The Fog made the River look like it was on FIRE!!!!
and it was....

Sunday morning we arrive about 5am, still dark, still cold and still early, the Carp were awake, scared the Crap out of me when we first got there, 4 ft in front of us, 3 footer clean out of the water, wooooo, JC wasn't ready. hahahahhaa

First trip not 15 minutes after lines in, drop and go, then the come back. ZZZZ ZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZ Man we got a RUNNNA and run it did, right into a fallen tree that someone just happened to cut with a chainsaw. Great Thanks and away goes my Fish, 25 lbs or so...

Got real quiet after that, move spots and again not 15 minutes and CLICK, the rig is out again. Ham has caught Carp before, but not like this. ZZZ ZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZ what a beauty, 10 minute fight and Ham has caught and released his new PB 28lbs 36 inches scale and tape!!!

My nephew Nate, poor guy, 10yrs old, had a Monster Carp snap my 15lb flouro leader, that was a first, couldn't turn or slow this BEAST down, not for nottin!!!! This Fish was close to 40 if it wasn't. Next time pal, you'll get em.

Still a few weeks left, mid October they should be about done, Go Get Em!!!!!!
