Carp

Carp you say? Yes carp, commonly called “ the poor man’s salmon”. They are very abundant in the GSL, seen around the docks all season long. Believe it or not some people find them quite sporting on light tackle or fly rod. Every now and then I do get requests to fish for them. Kids love to carp fish also, providing a good opportunity for kids to learn to properly fight a fish on rod and reel.
