Default DeWitt's Pond, May 13, 2016

This thread is near 2 years old.......
I was out at DeWitt;s Pond yesterday May 13, 2016 and I could not believe what I was witnessing.

There were six new Canadians using those real long fishing rods and catching carp. They did not keep the small rainbows only the carp.
The fellow beside me brought in 20 of these carp in a matter of an hour. He was using a whole wheat flour thick paste on about a #14 hook. The carp were 3"-5" long.

He would set the hook out about 20' from shore with a bobber.

He said they eat them and some people will bury them in the garden. When they are rotted they fertilize their plants.

I will call the Airdrie Hunting and Fishing Association today to inform them the trash cans are all full and the idiots simply toss their trash on the ground.

I had only one bag with me so I filled it with trash but there is a lot left to be removed.
