Unless someone wants them I C&R,it appears that a day may come they will be going home with me with the way things are headed.

I’ve heard smoked carp is fantastic. Haven’t caught one in years—guess I’ll have to make some dough ball & go after some.

I knew a old timer who would take his carp and cats from muddy waters and let them flush out in a tub of fresh water for a couple of days before dispatching them and cleaned them up!
The carp he fed me was ok as well-

That river has big bruisers like that down here in Southern Connecticut too. You have them dialed in nicely, so don't experiment too much , just keep it up.

Got it dialed in to sweet corn and a slice of garlic on a 1/0 circle hook,works very well.
