What's up with the carp?

How is the water aroud S. Elgin, did you see any fish being caught? Is there alot of walleye concentration in this area what about smallmouth? I see that you are out there for muskie/pike have you run in to any recently? Do you use big spinnerbaits? I actually ran into a lot of carp in the St. Charles area fishin for smallies, alot of broken lines. Oh well they are fun to catch on light tackle. Just a few questions, thanks! Tight Lines Y'all!

There is supposed to be some northern on the east side of the river about 1/2 mile, or so south of the dam. Have seen quite a few smallies caught, catfish, and carp, but no northern, or muskie. I have also been fishing Ferson creek, and got a 5.5 pound small mouth yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!!! 5.5 lb nice fish that fish had to be around for awhile! Fishing Ferson, Where exactly is that located? I am assuming its where two bodies of water empty into one another. thats really strange we are both from Bartlett as well, hopefully I can get out later tonight as well as tommorrow. Once again GREAT FISH! Hope to see more of that, its a shame you didn't get your northern or ski though. Good luck and tight lines!
