Spent the morning on the banks of Grapevine going after Carp & Buffalo. The weather was perfect & made for a great day!

Thanks for the comments! Biggest one that day was the wife's Buff at 10lb 6oz. We used homemade cinnamon & vanilla boilies.

wow...first off...awesome pics! Congrats on the catches...but kind of surprised by how small those fish are. Usually it's fairly easy to catch 15-20lb buffs at GV. Perhaps the juveniles were schooling and proud parents further out?

When you make your boilies, put some Rum extract in them. I have been using run extract in my carp bait with great success for long time now. I actually did a test few times where I would use some dough without rum extract in it and with it and the one with it always caught fish, no matter where I fished.
