Knowing the bite was gonna be slow, I headed to my Elwood Park spot to see if i can catch a straggler. Threw some lures for bout an hour with no luck @ all. Figuring that would be the case I brought some trashbags with me b4 I left home. I baited my line for some carp, put a bell on, & cleaned the hell outta the spot for like 2 hours. Came out with 6 full contractor bags n filled up about a dozen shopping bags that were laying around. Not the1st time I've done it, but figured I'd post it for inspiration as Andy has, & hopefully get you started on your local spots. Thanks for all the hard work AndyS, n those that pitch in!!

Thanks fellaz. The deer were lured to the car with some cinnamon/raisin bagels I had for carp bait G. And they were lovin it! That was actually @ Rifle Camp Park, was checkin out what looked on google maps to be a hidden pond, but no its public AND no fishin. So the deer were the highlight, bout 9 of em'.

As for the trash, I did get rewarded n finally hooked into a fish after work 2day! Felt like forever since I've caught a decent fish so it def felt good. They're still hittin but soo slow. Had one the other day RIGHT UNDER ME for an hour & change, and still couldn't get him! He missed my lures around 15-20 times but hust couldn't connect. Could've gang hooked him but thats corny. 2days fish was bigger anyway n real quik. Tight linez fellaz!!

While you were cleaning up in Elmwood Park did you happen to find a dead body?

A woman's body was found in the Passaic River Elmwood Park the other day.
