He's the one complaining the fishing at Carnegie has gone down hill. I know people who have put in some time there and I've never heard of a big carp come out of there, as he biggest I've seen was 23lbs. Most are around 10lbs. All I'm saying is don't blame the bad fishing on the fish getting too smart to catch when you are keeping hundreds a year.

I think the major fishkill a couple of years ago along with a ton of runoff chemicals flowing into Carnegie is hurting the fish population. They also need to dredge it again soon as it's getting too shallow.

Almost all of your statements about me are untrue. I only caught 58 common carp this year. I never saw anybody catch more than one carp in Carnegie Lake while I was there. Check the bowfishing section of //www.njhunter.com. 4 guys kill 100 carp per night in my Delaware River fishing spot. I only caught one carp there the past 3 years because the bowfishermen killed and removed thousands of carp from there the past few years. I only have 3 carp fishing spots and 2 of them were no good this year. You should take up bowfishing for carp.

My buddy saw you a few years ago. I showed him a picture of you and he said, "yup, that's the guy." You might not have seen him catch all 16, but that's how many he caught that day. I don't get it, you keep all the carp then complain that the fishing isn't good anymore.
