Nice day w/ the kids. Is that the pond by the shopping center/bank off Murray, if you don't mind my asking?

John Montana said...

Yep. Not exactly a scenic fishery but ok for a quick kid outing.

Mark said...

Sweet. It's been on my list of local places to hit up - but I've always held back, since I've never, ever seen anyone fish it before, then I saw that Moe on Oregon Fishing Forum fishes there, and catches fish. I'm going to have to break down and fish it soon. Are there panfish in there also, or is it just a big ol' carp aquarium?

That's a solid outing. One of my goals is to put the boys on carp this summer.

Saw the first five carp of the season on Friday.

the one and only time I tried that with the girls we caught three carp, and a duck! D*mn things would dive to the bottom to eat our bait.
We need to arrange a trip with Madeline and Elia somewhere on the river.
