This is Viet Carper, report from Lady Bird Lake, Austin, Texas. (Sound like you are listening to the radio show )

Well, today is another amazing day. However, not as many surprised as yesterday, I ended up hooked total 11 common carp, they are all good looking and healthy.

I start with same rods and reels again, but have some adjustment on the set up, and of course the bait. I tried to used some "home made" bait, and the result was great.

As usual, I always started up with some baby carp. The first caught was 8.9lbs


Then the second




It was very slow in the morning. I thought all the fish are gone after the successful yesterday, and they don't want to eat my foods anymore, or probably the new change on the bait make a different. I have to wait for about 2 hours.

While I was waiting for the fish, there was a guy came and talk to me, his name is Billie (I hope that I spell his name right). He has been reading my posts on the forum. Nice guy and nice conversation, while we were having the conversation, got me another run, I ended up with a 27.8lbs


As usual, the fish then released safely to the water where it belongs.


Billie left after I caught this fish, then I have to wait for about 45 more minutes. There are lots of people came and see me fishing, lots of kids, and they asked me to teach them how to carp fishing. Well, I gave them a lesson
Got me another hit, I asked them "who want to practice?" Robert, 9 years old said that he wanna try. I gave him the rod and tell him to reel it in. He gave up when the fish was mid way out of the water. I continued to reel the fish in, ending up a 37.3lbs. That was beautiful.


Here is my little student (his name is Robert)


He barely lift the fish up because it was too heavy for him


About 3:15PM, I got another run, and here is 29.5lbs common

No big surprised but it was an amazing day, lots of people jogging and talking around.

This is Viet Carper, Lady Bird Lake is where I set my record.

Wow man you've had an action packed 3 days. Congrats on the 30 sir.

Amazing. You caught 3 fish bigger than my PB in one session.

Did you get the length measurement on any? I see someone measuring.And congratulations out there still proving who's the man.

Way to go sir, that is how you make a difference in someone else's life

Nice catches by the way

Yes, I did measure the length of the fish. The one that I measure was 35" length.

Thank you Lester, come on down and have some fun... This river is full of fish.

Thank you.

What I realized was, Robert (the name of the kid) was so tired because the fish fight to hard, He barely handle it for about 10 minutes or so. He kept screaming "My arm is so sore" hahaha. That was an amazing time....

How much did the 35" fish weigh?

29.5lbs

Those are very nice fish! Keep working hard out there.
