9 lber
Cooked up my first batch of homemade corn meal bait for this year today, then went carping in 69 degree Carnegie Lake this evening in the cold rain. Threw out a can of corn for chum. Saw two carp jump. A 9 lb mirror carp picked up the bait, swam away and hooked itself. If my drag was tighter, it would have pulled my rod into the lake. The fish stayed out of the snags and I was able to beach it. Donated the carp to the Ukrainian National Home. Only had one other bite. Didn’t get a hit on a jig. The secret ingredient in the corn meal bait is organic black mulberry syrup from Turkey.
