    that must have been one heck of a fight! was there disappointment when you discovered it wasn’t a pike/walleye/musky/ or anything other than a carp?!

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a carp so dark it’s kind of pretty as far as carp go

    We knew it was a carp. That was the second one we had on that day which blows my mind. There was large suspended schools of them swimming around the area we were in. At first we were thinking high flyers,boy were we wrong

    That’s AWESOME! You can fill the bucket with just one fish

    I have seen some monsters on Mille Lacs before in shallow but never heard of one caught through the ice.
