Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Corrective stocking common carp

You might try trot lines to thin the herd. I'd bait it with size 8 trebles with a good dough ball recipe and run the lines parallel to the shore 2 to 6 feet of water....go heavy on the line. They are incredibly strong. Hybrid Blue Cats might be an option for full time carp anglers to help keep recruitment down.
