Nice Carp!
But hey, keep carp away from your lips, I read a report that some carp have a strain of herpes!

Nice! Hey great photo of you and the carp! That fish is looking right into the camera! It's cool that you are releasing them.

Dang man that thing is a hog. There's this one MASSIVE carp at eisenhower park that I just cant get.
I flyline too, tried hair-rigs, and just about every morsel i could think of. I did what you did too, i waited til he stuck his nose down to browse. Used 6 lb test too. He's gotta be pushin past 30 lbs.. just titanic.
He was eating the figs that drop from that tree, but wouldnt touch any i rigged up.. I think he must be waiting for them to soften and ferment a bit.
I'm gonna doing some carping too later on. Good job on the bruisers.
