Carp-fisher Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I had some good early spring carp action in Harrison's Bay on Minnetonka. I fished in about 3 feet of water with a mud bottom. Corn on a slipbobber worked well for 5 to 15lbers. The only other lake I've fished for carp has been Auburn Lake out by Victoria. I saw tons of 'em last summer while pike fishing, so I thought I'd give them a try this year. I've consistently caught 2-8lb carp in 3 feet of water in open sand bottomed areas. They seem to bite best around dark. What are your favorite metro carp lakes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Special Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 I personally like the inner city lakes. Harriet, Calhoun, Isle, Nokomis will all hold good numbers and some real piggies. But the most I've seen for numbers would be Long Lk in New Brighten.Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i got carps Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Lake of the Isles is always pretty good early in the morning and just before dark. Not tons of fish but nice average size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
