Carp on a spinner

[JayZuv]

Went fishing yesterday along a creek near me. It runs all the way out to Lake Erie, so you can find pretty much anything in this creek. So, I’m casting a small vibrax spinner for a while, with no luck. Mind you, I have nothing with me aside from my rod and a backpack with a few lures. All of the sudden, my little spinner gets slammed... by a huge carp?? I couldn’t believe it, and was now trying to figure out how I am going to land this 15ish pound carp that I have on my line with no net or anything of the sort. Sure enough a handful of people walking along the trails next to the creek see me fighting this fish so now I have a whole crowd of people watching me wrestle a carp. Needless to say, I ended up very muddy, and the bystanders got some good entertainment

Gotta love a carp fight.

Now that would have been a sight to see! Bystanders get any video?
