In a Summer Mode


I know the weather has become cooler, but it seems to me that the carp are moving into a summer feeding pattern. In the last week or so, I have noticed that the action has been the best right before and right after dark with the daytime action really trailing off. The rainy days have also been good. That is similar to what happens in summer fishing.

Earlier in the week, I went out on a rainy day and landed 5 good sized mirrors up to 18 lbs. Tonight my son Jon (photo at right) and I went out and sure enough, three runners went screaming off right after sunset. We had fished for an hour and a half before that and nothing. The times you fish do make a difference in your success rate in the coming months.
