Gentlemen,

Thanks for the information. I hope to get out there Saturday for a mix of smallie and carp fishing. Buck, I think you are right about the spawning. My son and I drove by several schools of carp that were breaking the surface but not chasing or feeding on anything. I hope I get a few because I will feel really inept if the carp are all around me like an Abbott & Costello movie and I don't put one in the boat. I will be cooking up some bollie and maing up some hair rigs.

I will post the results of my effort to catch the "blue collar bone fish"
