Looks promising Tyler !  
 
Hoping to chase the big cats first  ....need to build up the arms for the carp .
 
Got this corny card from my wife this morning .....  ( she knows )   
 
 
 

Fished for an hour after work with no luck. The last two years I have pictures of carp from March 25 so the time is coming soon. The lake is still 3/4 frozen.

Ya, that is one gorgeous fish, eh?  Yup, gotta get me some camo gear.

What a gorgeous pic of your set up in the snow, Tyler.
 
I remember fishing in the snow regularly in the winter, but it was years ago in Dundas at this one spot know to area carpers.  It was a canal that never froze over and we'd catch everything from carp to goldfish to hybrids( Half goldfish half carp.  They looked like a small carp with no barbels ).  Anyhoo, it was a fun time and great to be able to extend carp fishing into the winter months, and taking the classic "snow carp" photo of your catch on the snow.  
 
Unfortunately, I found out the current was because it was an outflow used by an area water treatment plant so my desire to fish there ended.  Now fishing isn't allowed there anymore anyways as the RBG has taken over the area to naturalize the banks and make a trail for hiking.  Pretty place for butterfly and bird photographers, now.         

Tyler, your pva presentation is da bomb!  Looks like the harbour may not freeze over this year, so a bonus for winter soft water fishing spots.
 
And Smerch, that bivvy is bigger than my first apartment( And nicer too! ).  lol

Hopefully I can post more then these two pics today. Come on carp where are you??
 

If I catch one of those obstinate puckered lipped bottom dwellers .....
 
...it's going into the frying pan !!  
 
 
 
 
 
well,,,,not really .................................

Fished a new Toronto swim yesterday from 1:30-5:00.  Once again a skunk but was nice to fish a new spot and chat with a fisherman that was walking by.  

Fished 5:30-10:00pm tonight with maybe one short short run. 3 beeps on the drop back I picked the rod up and nothing there.  
New line on the reels tomorrow after losing another spod.
Pva bags with goodies inside tonight. 

No carp should refuse that, Tyler!  You and Smerch seem to be taking advantage of the time left before freeze up, eh?  Hope you guys will be rewarded.  After all your efforts, you guys would certainly be deserving!

2/2 for me.....
2 sunsets and 2 skunks.
 Back at it tomorrow.
