    Big Head Carp

    My fishing partner snagged one this morning at the lower dam at Mcalpine . Weighed in at 25 pounds.

    He snagged it right at the dorsal fin and had a heck of a fight and lots of fun pulling it in.

    We did a catch and release but I cut it's stomach before releasing.

    I was there too today at 11am we didn't get the first striper ,tried the hydro too .....nothing??

    got a couple of Drum

    Water temp still too warm I think ,at least that's my story LOL

    Where are all the white bass?? Usually we can't keep those off our baits and I haven't caught a white since winter time sauger fishing?

    jfw, I think we saw each other as that was the time we were there too.We were in the blue Stratos with two old dudes in it. I think we met both launching and recovering at New Albany. ?? We launched about 9:30 and left around 12:30 or 1:00

    I'll agree with you on the water temp theory.

    A few weeks ago the hybrids/stripes/ or whatever were below the hydros. I posted a little blurb about it here.
