Carp Fishing


Question

actually a comment.  Not sure why carp fishing is just
catching on.  As a boy, I grew up in Moline Illinois in the
50's and 60's.  I went fishing almost every day during the
summer riding my bike to either the Rock River or
Mississippi.  We often would catch 40 or 50 fish in a
morning.  Green Giant Niblets were the best bait - though a
few old timers swore by Wheaties and vanilla formed into
doughballs.  I disagree that pound for pound carp are the
best fighting fish.  White bass are - although they don't
grow to near the size carp do.  Also catfish, under 5 lbs
will match a carp for fun.  Also, even though it is often
thought of as a trash fish because of the number of bones,
many people in my area would smoke them - making it
flavorful and much easier to remove the bones.

Answer
Corn & Wheaties have always been KILLER baits, hard to choose but I'd go with the CORN,,,as far as pound for pound fighting, I would assume that would depend on the health of the fish, and the tackle used,,, we could debate that for hours, however I;ve never experienced a fight like the one a carp will give you, especially on light tackle, and the oftentimes great runs as they approach the net is nothing short of heart stopping,,thanks for your comments,,,,,
