So I arrived at what will be known as the "FREEDOM SWIM" on lake benbrook at 2pm friday so i could get get our swim baited and my tent set up. 2 hours past without a beep but i was about to get a very nice suprise. At around 4:30pm donny calls me and says he's almost there and as soon as we hang up I get a screaming run so i pick up my rod and i'm hooked up. Halfway through the fight phone rings and its donny again saying he turned into the wrong park and at that time i see my first glimpse of the fish and i yell out loud for the world to hear " HOLY F"IN MIRROR MATE" at this time i'm shaking and i tell donny to get there quick becouse i was gonna need alot of pics. So i finally landed the fish as donny pulled up. she weight in at 13lb's 12ounces. Here are a couple pics.   So now i'm really excited for 2 reasons. I just caught my first mirror and the ghosti tourny is 2 wks away and it appeared the RED SHIRT MOJO just might be back. Over the next 24 hours the 3 of us hauled. We managed 39 more carp. Here's the totals. Kevin 18 carp 1 cat, chris 13 carp 2 cats, Donny 9 carp. Donny was using bigger baits trying weed out some of the small fish or he would have probably smoked us both. anyways, it was a great trip and a nice new swim. here's some more pics. THE 1 eyed carp:  Donny and Chris with a double:  Kevin with a 13b 8 oz common.  Donny with a 12lb"er:  Kevin with an 11lb'er:  Chris with a smaller fat little common:  Chris with another common:  Well thats all folks. What a great trip and a very memorable 1 for me. Donny and Chris let's do it again soon!

A mirror at Benbrook! Awesome, everyone.
None of those fish look like they've spawned, or are even ready to spawn. Did you catch any bloated bellies?
