Been a bit busy as of late so I decided not to fish very far and landed just two target fish, but they were bigguns! Might have to make these exploratory excursions more often First Carp out of here, off to a fantastic start! This guy was pretty skinny but still tipped the scales at 17lbs even. Filled out he'd easily go 20+! Hooked into this chunk and thought she was a turtle! Just a few beeps on the rod and a quick, firm hookset and she was on. Literally no fight to her, the water was cold and she was sluggish so she just came straight in. But what a fish she was! 23lbs of solid muscle, 30in long and 24.6in girth. Just look at those shoulders! Decided to name this thick girl Lizzo. Can't wait to catch her again after feeding her up a bit more!

Very nice! Nothing more fun than catching fish (big ones at that) in those exploratory waters!
