Went out to Govt wash on a whim last night. Soaked some anchovies and crawlers without any committed bites. The carp were jumpin so I soaked some corn.
I broke one off at the shore after getting excited and trying to horse it in. I forgot* for a second that I was fishing an ultralight with 4lb test.
So I rigged up more corn on a 6lb ultralight rig and let it soak.
There was bait being chased ashore so we threw some topwater plugs. I had two miss strikes but no hookups.
As we were packing up, I hooked into this one and patiently pulled him in. Great fight, 7lbs. [
