You would rather skip opening day of dove and deer season to fish for carp.



who else has some?

...if while moving through a salad bar line you find yourself thinking not about what food you want to put on your plate, rather what food would make good carp bait.

This happens every time to me too!! Corn, garbanzo beans, peas, kidney beans??? haha

you find yourself thinking that milkshake flavors will catch buffs...vanilla, strawberry...etc

I know Mike (Agfisher02) gives me a hard time about this...


Every body of water you drive by looks "carpy."

AND...

When your "dining room" (term used loosely for my apt) is filled with nothing but fishing gear, unless you are gone fishing.


My mom hates that one. I need a bigger apt to store all my fishing gear!

you have spent about $1000 is carp gear this year.

if you have fished for carp for 2 years and are yet to catch a one, but refuse to give up.

ha, like me spend 7000$ in a year on carp gear and leave in the middle of the night to fish a lake 3 hours from the house when there is a lake 20 minutes from the house that has carp already there.

...you have frustration dreams about finding the perfect spot with carp cruising and rolling everywhere, but for whatever reason you can't fish it.

Seriously, I have a variation of this dream about 2 or 3 times a month. Usually I can't find my fishing poles or, as in one of them, there were too many cars parked in the lake to fish.

I think I have a problem...

........ you buy a container just to hold your bivvie pegs

16k since August of last year & half of it went to BCT. 26k if you include the deck being built.

I constantly think of what I could be catching if I wasnt doing what I happen to be doing at the moment.

Chris,

You have spent more hardcore time fishing this summer than any of us. That last trip was dedication.

Scott,

The bivvy peg container is pretty damn tart and pretty damn awesome.

I agree. Chris is the carp mogul of the year!



I love the one about the dream...yep, you are obsessed.


I had a dream last night that I was delivering some trusses to GG's house down in Caney, and i was looking for his fihsing spot to "show" him how to catch carp.


how's that for obsessed?

lol.....
I really do think that if we used all the pegs in my back yard someone would get a carp. bigger area for the buffs to cover, thus letting some carp in.

GG

If you have 50lbs of range cubes, 50lbs of wild bird seed and 50lbs of horse & mule sweet feed in your garage and don't own livestock or feed birds....you might be obsessed with Carp fishing.


PW

After fishing the first time for them, you did it again a second time.

Huckleberry

Do you even fish??? Don't get me wrong... But I haven't seen a single fishing post from you...

if your doughbait is sitting on top of your egg container in the fridge!

He does fish--just not for fish.

your sitting in the UK staring at your pc with google earth locked on LBL sorting out the best swims to save precious time when I get there.............SAD or WOT

Nah...from what I can tell, that's pretty much every angler in England, hehehe.

my dough bait is on top of my egg carton right this very second! oh and .... if your wife refers to your carp fishing as "the other woman"

After looking at what Jason and Chris have spent this year compared to me I don't feel so bad, of course they are hopefully counting their boat slip cost in the figures

ha...you too......i catch it all the time....i used her kitchen-aid pots to boil maize in and her brand new 30.00 tupperware vaccum lock container to keep it fresh!......
