carp campaign

Working the O C R Bighorn fly reel. This is the fourth day of chumming. I arrived half an

hour later than I wanted but I set up my new larger (26 inches) net and started to fish for carp.

This net can hold a toddler.

I'm amazed at how well the Bighorn works fighting an angry carp. It is one thing dealing

with trout or smaller fish but to matter of factly resist the torpedo-like accelerations of a big

carp is impressive!

 I'm having fun. The weather is pleasant and I'm catching carp.
