    Carp fishing

    Had an unreal summer chasing the golden vacuum trouts all around the lml and into the interior. Anyone fish for carp in BC or on the forum here? Caught some monsters and caught my personal best fish of the summer a beauty mirror carp. I Caught all these fish on my tenkara rod. 37 fish in total, moving over to the UK coarse fishing methods for the winter, counting down the days into spring when I can get back into sight fishing them on the fly again

    I want to know more, that looks like a blast, where does one find decent carp fishing in the LML? Pitt polder? sloughs off the fraser/vedder?

    Carp in the lml has the main spots like deer lake. Burnaby lake and lafarge. All city spots basically and All hold fish and some good fish. Lafarge only a few. But has some nice ones. As far as where else to find them down here. I find new spots every day. It’s hard to say where exactly because they are very much found in pockets and you hve to do a lot of leg work to find good numbers. I have done the work and I have found them. I won’t share my hot spots of course, I’m like any other hardcore fisherman I don’t give that up easy. But no joke if you see a city park, swamp, drain hole it could hold a carp or koi. Give a look next time your passing by you’d be surprised where a 30” carp can chill out for a while. They can live in absolute trash water. But a lot of the main rivers have side channels and sloughs that can hold fish. Just up to you to find them

    We used to catch a lot of them and feed the nutrients to the riverbanks/wildlife.

    That looks like a $hit load of fun. Please share some of your info as There are a ton of carp in Christina Lake in the shallows in spring and it I know a lot of guys that would like to try it. We have been bow-fishing them but a fly rod would be outstanding
