Winter Carp Fishing And Scouting....
Got out on Friday the 20th for some carp fishing and scouting new spots for this spring.... Didn't have any luck with carp but landed a 3 pound channel cat. It felt great to get out and catch something in December.... As far as the scouting went... well, I think I found a few spots for this spring... Fished the Big Timber Creek near the Delaware River. On interesting thing that I came upon was an old man that lived along the Creek came out to talk to me while I was fishing.. he asked me to come see something in his garage... there on the wall was a huge muskie mounted that his son had caught out of the Creek in front of his home.. it was about 3 feet long.... I was shocked that it came out of the creek.... he proceeded to tell me a story about one evening they were sitting out on the dock and a monster muskie came up from behind a young duckling and engulfed it whole... there must be some monsters in there.....
