since I have fished.
Went to the club today for some carp/bass/pike fishing. Did some carp, bass, but no pike fishing and had a ball.
The creek is in really good shape. Did see some trout swimming around, and for close to the month of August I was very pleased.
I hooked 8 carp and landed 4. 3x tippet is too light for these monsters. The 4 I landed took at least 20 minutes apiece, including running up and down the creek, lifting logs they swam under, yanking out weeds, etc. A film crew would have had a ball following me today. All hook ups were panic city.
Also landed a few smallies. Most were small, but the one pictured is a beaut. The Yellow Creek Trout Club is a true year round fishery. Love those carp for sure…way tougher to catch and land than a trout any day of the week.
