A fighting chair is sometimes needed, especially with younger children! Haha Carp is by far my favorite fish to hook up with!

I to have a little girl that would love to see more fish in a area how many days from when you put the corn inare the fish there and how long before they leave

Usually didnt take long. I used to throw a few handfulls out then bait up with can kernel corn. First one may take awhile but after that it's on. Even a small size common will give a youngster a pretty good tussle. If the spot is close and easy throw a handfull or two out a couple days in a row and they'll be waiting on ya!

Kuger....not sure you'll be able to get a hook set on those armored carp...

just a thought, but you guys might want to be carefull about placing any bait this time of year with waterfowl season coming up. A couple of boys here in GA got busted for baiting teal and geese. They got caught because a Game warden checked their boat for life jackets and then he saw corn, etc. It might be hard to explain why you had feed of any kind to mr green jeans.

Man!!! whatta turnout for a responce, it seems that bait'n is just part of the game, I've heard of chum'n for bluegill & catfish but never gave it a thought for carp,,, good deal, I learned a few new tricks of the trade.

Maybe for pole fishing but not bowfishing since feeding carp are gonna muddy the water so bad you won't be able to see chit.
