The tug is the drug, allegedly.

Lol
I have hooked carp
Pulling in a bag of sand

They put up an awesome fight.
I've landed a few 25-30 lbs. from the NYC reservoirs. Actually quite useful for keeping the reservoirs clean especially the bottom. Not great eating though.

i have to disagree
They have muddied the local ponds near me and have messed up the bass population

6/10-Headed to Pepacton reservoir in the Catskills for some hike wading. Pepacton is a big place so we got in about 5 miles of hiking to get to our fishing spots today. Arena was the ticket today water levels are high. Smallmouths were biting all day at our primary wading spot we would catch a few then wait for more to move in.

The trout fishing at Mill Creek as it entered Pepacton was exceptional. I caught 2 nice rainbows on consecutive casts before lunch.

Steve caught two brown trout in the same pool. Bass season officially starts on 6/19.

Here’s a video from then of the beauty.

6/17-Good bass fishing on Rye Lake with Steve. Caught a variety of bass including largemouths, smallmouths and rock bass. Some of the rock bass were decent sized. But all of the biggest fish were smallmouths today.

Fish were confined to specific areas in the sun with shallow water near shore and deep water access with weeds. Any spot that met this criteria produced 2-3 fish each.
