Bass were slow and I hate bouncing worms in the cold and jigging really slowly so I thought I'd switch it up. It's final exams week on campus and who would've thought I have a fishing final exam? haha I told myself I was going to catch one of those big carp out of brays bayou on 5 pound test and today I passed with an a+ lmao. After him I caught like 20 eating sized blue and channel catfish all at least the length of my shin. I'm 6'4 by the way. I live on campus so I cand cook em up today but maybe some other time I'll go back ready to take a few home. Anyways, what do you think of my football? EDIT: Damn...lmao I should've submitted it to tpwd. I just found out I have the record for that body of water. I mean I was fishing for fun, so I don't really care but It feels nice to be a part of history lmao.Lmfao whatever. Hindsight is 20/20.

I just threw a night crawler on the bottom where there'd be a sand/silty bottom with some vegetation. Honestly I wasn't expecting to actually catch one I was just thinking about where a carp might be, casted there with skepticism thinking a bluegill would take it and two thumps later I'm fighting a buffalo carp

Nice. One day I was on jury duty. We were positioned in an office building in Houston, way above Buffalo Bayou. Looking down, through the windows, I could see a half dozen really large carp swimming in the bayou. It was a nice diversion for all of the waiting time between court time.
Nice catch richg

Very nice catch, taking care of business at college and working in some fishing on your free time, good priorities.
Thanks for sharing.
