Carp Season - 05/31/22 02:37 AM
I have caught Carp as early as mid March on the flats of my home lake. But, for me, the unofficially official start to "Carp season" starts after Memorial Day weekend. I like the heat. Catching Carp with long pants, shoes and a jacket on just doesn't feel right to me. If it's too cold to go out on my skiff in shorts and barefooted, it's too cold out. So June, July and August are my favorite months for poling the flats for Carp, as well as Gar, Drum and a few other species that frequent the flats. To commemorate the unofficially official start to the season I did a pencil drawing - "Carp Turning On A Backstabber." (fly). So, to all you guys that are chasing Carp on the fly, go get 'um.
