The city will come to empty the trash barrel and take the other junk too . At my fishing spot there was 2 empty pop cans and 2 empty condom pkgs.....lots of after dark activities goes on there ! The carp wasn't big , but was a good scrapper and it came back upstream and caught my other line , but came back under it again . I don't take my big net as it is too much to handle with my bike . There's a nice little cut out to get them close enough to release them . You can the shadow reflection ... a guy was taking a video of me fighting the carp . I didn't know he was there until after I released it . Nice chunky carp. Kinda creepy the guy taking video without you knowing he was there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times have changed as people can shove a camera at your face anywhere , anytime. sometimes I would like to grab their phone and shove it ..... ss ! There are all kinds of wing nuts who walk the road down there . Someone has a tent back in the bushes near my spot , probably a homeless person ....don't venture down there after sunset ...... That chunky carp took off into the main current & headed upstream . It's surprising how fast it could rip through that fast current pushing 1.5 oz.of lead .... .

Lukefish99 Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 I was fishing port Dalhousie pier and there was this guy walking down the pier taking pictures of each angler, and when he got to me I turned and stared him straight in the eyes for 5 seconds and he moved on without a picture of me. Not really sure what he was doing but it sure was creepy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler0420 Posted October 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 Ya I’ve had enough of the rain. When there’s more rain days in the week then work days it’s not good. tried fishing the river in town but that didn’t work. With the wind, current and debris 4oz leads wouldn’t hold bottom. Going to try my local pond now. Bubba14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless I’m fishing my local pond I always fish with 2-3oz leads. smerchly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
