5-22-11 CARP PE DIEM

BUGLE LIPS

BLUE SKIES, CRYSTAL CLEAR GREEN WATER AND 95 DEGREE TEMPS. ITS AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN GET TO SIGHT FISHING THE OCEAN OTHER THAN LACKING THE SMELL OF THE SALT. THE CARP SAGA CONTINUED TODAY AS REX AND I HAD ONE OF THOSE DAYS THAT ONLY COME ONE OR TWO TIMES A YEAR.

WE CAST AND CAST AND CAST TO CARP UNTIL WE WERE TOTALLY WORE OUT. WE ALSO OBTAINED A GREAT SUNBURN IN THE PROCESS. WE PUT 42 FISH IN THE NET TODAY FROM 2LBS TO 9LBS. ALL WERE CAUGHT ON TOP WATER SIGHT FISHING THE CICADA HATCH. WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET A TREAT TODAY AND CAUGHT 4 BEAUTIFUL MIRROR CARP- THEY SEEM TO FIGHT A LITTLE BIT HARDER THAN THE COMMON CARP. THIS IS TRUELY AN EPIC EVENT THAT SHOULD LAST A COUPLE OF MORE WEEKS. THIS IS THE ULTIMATE TRIP TO PREPARE YOU BEFOR YOU GO ON A COASTAL TRIP AND WILL PREPARE YOU IN SPOTTING FISH, MAKING LONGER ACCURATE CASTS QUICKLY, AND FIGHTING HARD PULLING FISH- THIS WILL ALL MAKE YOUR SALT WATER TRIP MORE ENJOYABLE. AND IF YOU ARE ON A TIGHT BUDGET THIS YEAR YOU CAN SAVE LOTS OF MONEY AND STILL GET YOUR SALT FIX BY TAKING ONE OF THESE TRIPS.
