Carp and other Rough fish pics

This thing might have went 40#s. DEADhead knows my spring time set up , it's super effective on large carp.

Hmmmmm...I'm guessing an arrow.

no on the arrow. try a net for size.

Carp are stacked thick on the north side of lakes right now. And no, my fly is not open.

got this 29-incher today with my puny ultra-lite w/ 4 lb. line- thought I was only going get to suckers out of a section of Basset Creek!

really took my time to get it landed and another big carp kept following it around like it was worried about it's mate or buddy- they were soon reunited

here are some of the rough fish I have caught this spring...

[Stick500]

A Chub!!!

I love it Dan Z!

Those spawning bumps on their head are kinda cool

I wrote the WI DNR last year to try and get them to add Creek Chub to the species up for state records (so I could be first to set it) but they said no.

I've already caught a bunch down by Dubuque this year- this is the earliest I've gone after them.

I have caught some really big ones already with the spawning horns... prolly up to 13" or so

[roughfish29]

here's my 20 inch shorty

my ugly arse white sucker. this thing, ahem, "milted" all over my charhart

nice golden doubled with a clam

The Camera guy was there to follow a large group of guys who are passionate about many species of fish. It is the 10th annual get together and there will be 2 segments about the gathering on MN bound. Bill Sherk was also there. Two very nice guys who were very approachable and easy to talk with.

If your a Carp fan in the Fargo/Moorhead area, Woodland Park in Moorhead has a couple large herds stranded big Carp in it post flood.

They will all die eventually. If anyone wants to angle them now the water level there is ideal to do so. Be a fun outing for the kids or for the hardcore carp wrangler. I do not think any attempt will be made to extract them. Angeling them out would be far better then smelling them for a month after they all die.

Very good chance there is also game fish stuck in the park this season too. Cats are very likely in there as well. I see a lot of fish in there yet.
