I can't tell you how many times I've walked by our nearby lakes and ponds and see very sizeable carp feeding on the algae growth along the waterline. I tried going out there with a landing net, but they do seem to be a bit too crafty for me ATM and see it comming a mile away.

So, my question is this: Is there any tips/strategy/ect to catching specifically those carp that I see along the waterline?

I've tried a small hook with several pieces of canned sweetcorn, but either they just kinda stare at it, don't notice it at all and/or get spooked in about 30 seconds and drift away from it. EDIT: also tried bread. I think only 1 carp noticed the bread and took a nibble, then left. No one else went for the bread.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Use a hatchet, etc. to cut the shell into two halves, knife the meat out, skin the legs, cut into small bite size pieces, dip in egg, roll in crumbs and fry like chicken tenders.

I end up with partial spools also, but they work great for leaders and even for really tough sewing thread when you need some heavy duty but small diameter thread.

👍👍 I keep a couple spools, drag caps and shafts from old/broke reels and stick them in a cordless drill to reverse my braid when it gets old and reverse the braid so the used part of the braid is tied to the backing and the un used braid is now on top so i get double the life out the braid before I have to have new braid spooled on again.


Now that’s out-of-the-box thinking.

If you’re patient enough to wait a month Wish.com has a wide variety of fishing supplies, including some I never heard of. They ship direct from China and you can find some great bargains, just watch out for shipping cost, which frequently exceeds the price of the item. They use multiple vendors and the price varies widely, so shop around. They also have a generous return/refund policy and Customer Support is very helpful.

Hot temperatures are quickly approaching southeast Louisiana. I have several styles and several brands of fast drying, lightweight, stain free, fishing shirts, however, most of them seem to induce sweating. They don’t seem to breath well and they are anything but inexpensive. What brands and styles have y’all found to be fast drying, lightweight, stain free, and not induce sweating? Pictures and links would be extremely helpful.

If you have access to a Sam's Club, they carry a line of Habit fishing shirts for about $16 - a good discount from retail. They feature SPF protection, venting, and moisture wicking in long and short sleeves. They are often my go-to for everyday wear. Check out the Sam’s Club website and Google Habit fishing shirts.
