Would you be happy if you caught this one? I hope you would be... It's fun to switch it up and go after different types of fish useing different techiques. This fish was caught on corn! Fishing for carp. Carp fishing is one of my 1st choice's. It is by far the most inexpensive. Carp fishing is my bass fishing. $5.00 is plenty of cash for the night. You would be suprised what you could catch on corn, and of course carp get bigger than bass...

He is a mirror carp as I thank God for a early birthday gift (two days before my birthday). Notice the huge scales!!! Conpare them too my hand... You can see where the scales are completely absent; that is smooth skin(scaleless).
!
Here is a regular common carp. You can see how the scales are "perfect" and/or dirrerent from the mirror carp. It's a trill catching any carp, no matter what the type or size is. I don't no if it's just me, but it seems like the mirror carp fight harder. You mite get one (1) mirror carp to every 40-50 common carp (if your lucky). This makes it even more fun!! Believe me. Get into too carp fishing and enjoy your self. Watch how pumped you will be when you get a mirror carp in your 5th year of doing it. How about your 1st time trying it? That's the faboulous twist too the hole thing...
!
You can see how happy it made me! There is another carp in our waters I never seen or caught. It's called a leather carp. They are completely scaleless! Let me no if you caught one, this would really impress me. Also, have confidence and believe in your self and the water you are fishing in. Who care's if "their" not biting and no one caught anything. Define "their"... What are you out there for? Don't you want to catch "THE BIG ONE",or "BUBBA",or, "GRANDPA"? I am happy to catch anything, don't get me wrong. I am happy if I catch nothing at all (just getting -out and relaxing). The point I'm trying to make is don't worry about the "action", or how "their" biting, and who is catching what. Only GOD know's when the rare fish, record holder, or the biggest fish of your life is going to bite. Alot of times the monster will be the 1st fish caught after hours of nothing at all... Never worry about "their"...
Try to pick up a old encyclepidea. Find a map with highlighted areas showing what fish are in your state. Go by that. That is the correct information. Always keep them rare fish and "long shots" on your mind to help you dream a little bit and daydream the endless possiblitys. Excite yourself useing an open mind...
You can watch me catch carp in a couple different shows. "Chumming with Corn", "The CArp Game", (the viewer's at home get to guess how many inch's they are and bet on it with there family at home, "Carp Fishing 07' and 08'" and "Corn Techiques". You will learn frist hand right's from wrong's, what too react and not react too, and how to go about a few different situtations. I will show you my newly developed style of carp fishing and give you the important tips that matter most.
God Bless, Prey I can get my highlight video on here by the end of the month. I am having some problems, they will get resolved. It is driving me crazy. Here is a 1st hand example of wy patience is so important.
Much Love,
