The carp gods were good to me today, firstly I managed to get my residents license without any problems, so naturally I went straight out fishing! Had 3 fish and beat my us pb with each one. 10lb 2oz, 15lb 6oz and 24lb 12oz

Way to go dude! Those are some good looking fish, i think your going to like fishing here.

im loving it already, the fish fight hard, the bait is cheap, and there are plenty of big uncaught fish to be had (i just gotta figure out where they are)

I didnt know you could fish at ghostie at night?Will the cops say anything to you if youre sitting out there all late.

As far as I know, you can fish there until 10:00. Dad and I almost always stay till dark at least. He caught his 25 lb.er after dark back in Apil.

In the summer, there were a few times where we went all day long without a single bite and as soon as the sun set, they would turn on. Sucked because that was about 9:30 at the time lol. The latest we ever stayed was about 10:30 once. There were locals still walking the path and no one said anything.

By the way UKCarper, congrats on the great fish!

I too had a day like that my first time at Ghostie. My PB going in was 14.5lbs. and I proceeded to break it 4 times that day, and I also got my current PB that day, which I haven't been able to top since.

man i wonder if i go this sunday evening if they would say anything if i stayed till around 2.or if anyone has any ideas of a good overnight place here in the metroplex i would appreciate it.

wtg! i also have my pb from ghostie! Its a really great place to catch some great looking fish! Got a beautiful ghost carp from there as well!!!

im in Ft Worth as well ukcarper, id like to get together and do a session sometime!

way to smash your texas pb on your second outing. you beat my pb from ghostie as well by like 10oz. Good stuff

good job UK, I also am in FW, about 5 minutes from ghostie, give me a PM and we can do a session sometime.

My PB is from Ghostie as well. See a pattern?

That pond is crazy. I'm still amazed by it.

I'm going to set up a PayPal account for donations....

Maybe a drop box in the picnic shelter.

Awesome session!

thats an awesome fish man.Congrats

Congrats!

Great fish congrats

Quality mate -

What baits did you use? I am going to try sweet corn and Strawberry boilies, and maybe make some pop ups?

If the turtles are gone I would try some freelined bread. I absolutely killed on it there in the spring, but they seemed to lose interest in it about the end of May. The last few times I've been there either my Dad or me has gotten at least one on bread. The turtles will drive you batty though if they're still around.

Where do the turtles go in cold weather? Anybody know?

I was there yesterday for a short session. The water was muddy. Not even a beep from the alarms in 5 hours. The turtles were still there, but did not cause any trouble..

Did anybody ever tried crunchy dog or catfood dont know the names up there ..but they float
And they are full of flavor to and easy to use
It has been a killer bait for me in the past
