Thanksgiving Day Carp - 11/27/20 11:32 PM
Chummed some bread and caught this in a 30 minute fishing break from football watching. Lots of grass carp there usually so was surprised to see this hog.

That's a good un. Well done.
Nice fish and a very nice memory.
Nice fish! Lake Austin holds some good ones for sure. Keep those pics coming

Thanks guys! We are going to try again today so I’ll post pics if we have any luck. That fish sure had a belly on it- is it spawn season or are they just shaped that way when they get older? She swam away healthy regardless. We caught a few 2 or 3 lb catfish too but the carp are sure fun to fight.
Spawn isn't until late February to early March. Those fish are just well fed down there!
