Yesterday was the first very nice day we've had in 2015 on a weekend and I waited all week to get out and enjoy it. I was hoping the warmer weather would help with the chances of landing my first carp in 2015. With water temperatures hovering near 48 degrees, my hopes were high.
I landed the first fish shortly after 8 a.m. and another after 9 a.m.
The third was landed in the early afternoon and then two more between 4:30 and 5:00. It was a nice day on the bank and the sunshine certainly helped a lot.

Started the day with this little guy |
 |
Landed this 20 pounder about an hour later |
 |
Waited several hours for the third fish |
 |
This one sounded the middle alarms about 4:30 |
 |
This one made the left rod scream just before 5 p.m. |

It was a wet swim, but pretty productive after all. The muck boots were a must have for this spot. |
It was must first time using butternut flavoring and it did not disappoint. Overall the flavor was very productive with bites throughout the day, 6 fish hooked and 5 landed.
