Hey all BFT.
My fishing may be a bit hit and miss for a bit. Working with my Dad and heath/age issues.
But - Cookie and I made a quick swing out to Willard and the outlet swamps in search of some carp for next years cut bait.
The holes we wanted to fish were occupied in the AM, so we dropped some gear into Willard North Marina - no luck - at all - nada - nothing - not even a breeze to tip the rod. I did see a greeb make a catch, so I know they are there.
Went back to the outlet swamps a bit later and the Carp were willing, but we could not keep bullheads off the line to catch the carp. Only able to catch two carp - lost track of how many bullheads. Will take a traditional carp pack bait next time and not worms. Did not know how many of those pesky bullheads lived in that area.
Had a lot of fun for a short run. I dont normally tell ya that you have to watch the video attached, but Cookies response when I told her we were signed up for the ice fishing contest is worth your time to watch
Oh ya - the report - Cold air. Cold water. Cold wife. All catches on worms.
