Totally agree with this comment from Greg "Besides those carp are pretty smart and will avoid you like the plague"
I chummed with bread slices last summer when the water was clear we could see 20+ carp right from the dock, added atop water lure wrapped with a slice of bread, set in the pole holder within 2-3 minutes bam carp on!
I Caught 2 this way and never saw them again all summer.
I used to catch carp from rivers with corn kernels years ago, but does not work here maybe because these are Grass carp, we have tried some different carp recipes found online and because they are very affordable we will continue, will be trying cotton seed cakes this spring, Sounds like spawning may be prime time.
I wish we could seine them but the lake bottom drops very quickly from the shoreline. (10 feet from shore is about 6-7 feet deep) the incline continues.
I wonder if we could find the right bait and hooks and then toss some free-floating jug lines out overnight when the lake is quiet and calm, any thoughts?
TY for all the help.
