Thanks for the info everyone. And it looks like they are illegal to target. My bad!! It was at devils lake and it went back in unharmed. it was a great fight on a little trout rod though. It took about 15 minutes to land. Too bad:( I was looking forward to targeting them again.
I saw a big fish hittin the top of the water like a carp yesterday and threw out a piece of hamburger bun on a treble hook and 1 minute later and wham!!! GOT this biggun. Just wondering what kind of carp it is.
