chevro1et Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 I've been fishing this spot for a few years now with little success, despite my perceived potential of it. For whatever reason this spring, the big Jun-chi (Korean name for these predatory carp) are using it as a feeding point, and they are not afraid to hit the minnow profile hard baits. A few years ago I caught one of similar length, but this one was thicker and girthier by a large margin.

But like I said, I don't really know. DrewManFishing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
