The carp spawned in the Cat tails a few days ago so I have been bringing my video camera out every day and filming the daily action. Spawn only lasted one day but I was able to catch that day and every day since. I caught 3 today and got them on film with some great alarm action. I also took a detour down to the little feeder creek and found a carp with his head out of the water slurping grass at creeks edge. Videos are below

Carp feeding on grass in feeder creek. Listen to the carp begin to slurp out of the water several times starting at about 1 min. into video!

Thanks, Mike, I was wondering if you used something simple or went to one of the more complicated formulas, mixes, or fancy English foods. Simple does pretty good!!

Heck of a pond, and walking distance from my house! Too bad it's too small for a skiff, and doesn't have a big flat on it. Could be a spawn? It's a strange place.

You can bring a boat out there just no gas motors. I have seen john boats and plenty of kayakers and canoes. But its easier to land the big carp from the shore. Carp spawned again yesterday. I saw some really exotic fish! I wish I would have brought my camera!
