First Try
Message:
Very first try at a local lake that I know of that has some big grass carp stocked in it to control weeds (ruined the whole lake). Showed up mid day (bad idea?) the weather was bright skies about 75° and conditions we're decently clear. Got some corn from big y and threw about 5 handfuls out and then chucked a corn baited hook out with a slip weight about on the edge of the far side I threw the corn (like 30ft from shore maybe?). Spent three hours waiting for nothing while catching golden shiners perch and small bass near shore. I know the fish are In there cause a buddy got 4 the same spot the day before.
So can anyone give me some tips? Don't need your secret bait recipe (unless you wanna Haha), was I doing anything wrong? Or did I just had bad luck maybe?

I'm curious to hear some feedback on this as well. I basically did the exact same thing this weekend at a local cove on the CT River. The carp were jumping like crazy, some the size of small dogs! Thought they would be an easy catch...but nothing!

Do carp feed when they're spawning?
