Nepean River Carp

Hi All

Took the little girl for a fish down the nepean this afternoon. After about 40 minutes one of the rods buckled and I was into a fight with a carp. My daughter absolutely cracked me up as she grabbed the net as soon as I picked the rod up! Good girl! A gentleman watching decided as the fish looked as big as her (she's 6) he'd better do the honours. Thanks to his mate who took the photo - he could have waited until the constipated look disappeared off my face though!

He stuffed a big corn bait (about 10 kernels), and it was probably the best fight I have had with a carp, had a number of good runs.

Cheers

Great looking carp, the more i see out of the Nepean the better.

Ive heard they put up a good fight and believe it or not some people actually eat them. :1fishing1:

Gday snag

Mate not wrong, good to do something for the river. As for eating them you wouldn't believe it but a bloke who had been fishing for them that day brought his in laws down and asked if they could take the fish. No worries, saved me getting rid of it. They were going to make a stew!! Yum!
