Default Columbia River Carp

Last week I was looking for a place to fish, and the wind was calm so I
drove over to a favorite spot on the Columbia and was a bit surprised
to find the carp beginning to school. A couple hours of fishing with
my friend Jaime only produced one fish, but it was the biggest one I've
ever caught, including the fish I used to shoot with bow and arrow
years ago in Illinois.

It came up behind the clouser tied bunny and rubber legged thing I was
using, and I set the hook when I saw her suck in the fly. Not a huge
fight, a couple runs some splashing, maybe 3 minutes total. She was
very quiet for the pictures, and then swam off when I let her go.

I posted a picture on abpf
