мормышка Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 The only thing to hurt it is excess rain and muddier water. I don't think the catfish mind it as much as carp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 The cats seem to be able to zero in on the bait in extra muddy waters using their big whiskers and radar . For carp we chum our spots to put out more scent . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 I went to fish a creek mouth today on Lake Ontario but the 4’ waves were crashing the beach pretty hard And the creek was pure mud so went to check out CCIW. One of the regulars were there so I got all excited. (Yes the carp must be in) I pull into the parking lot and he’s packing up. He had his bait boat out with the finder on it and marked no fish at all. Guess it’s still going to be a bit. So headed back home to fish this lake with no luck either. The wind was crazy today.

Jwl1 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 They will be starting in the shallow water any time in a few spots I know...when I have the time I am going to start checking out a few spots.....although sometimes it's weird...you can check spots every day....then all of a sudden...boom it's on!!!!!

Mike Pike Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Dang, Smerch, you had me going on that one. Nice carp, though, no matter when it was caught. And we love pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mike , pictures give us inspiration and revitalize our memories of passed successes when the last 4 outings have been fish-less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
