THe carp are bad in the rivers around here too. I have never had a problem in a faster boat but on cruisers, fishing boats etc. They are horrible.

Wow. This seems to be the best I can see on youtube. IT's a 2 parter.

It was 3 in the morning and I was on watch by myself on a perfect night of 20 knots on a broad reach with the rail buried in the water with dolphins surfacing right next to the rail for about a half an hour heading for the tortugas from Naples. Anyways i am dead tired and the only thing that is keeping me awake is the dolphins playing by the side of the rail. Next thing i know a fish about 30 inches long b i t c h smacks me in the face and lands in the cockpit jumping around trying to do its best to destroy every thing there. After what seemed like forever but what was only about 15 seconds of my startled sleepy azz screaming like a little girl i i kicked it overboard out of shear panic . Anyways that was FUN. |
Can you eat em?????????

I know it wouldn't be funny if it happened to me, but I almost bust a gut laughing when I saw that one video - the guy at the tiller of an outboard caught at least a 10-pound carp right in the nuts!
Man, that had to hurt... :eek: |
