After a hellish first three days at work this week, I eeked out an afternoon off. I knew I was gonna fish somewhere.....but where? Well, a little birdie told me about some capr seen in a local ditch. I got there around 12:45 and sure enough, there were caprs just hanging out. I managed one within the first handful of casts....a sunner, not really my favorite, but a capr is a capr is a carp. 
I then proceeded to absolutely butcher the rest of my shots for the next hour and a half....6' to the right, 6' to the left, 6' to the left again, right on it's head....d'oh. Eventually I made my way to an area where they were in thick and actually feeding. I got 2 more before the entire area was just blown up and too turbid to see anything. Called it a [half] day and headed out. Bonus catch, was this super cool (likely nutria) skull.
Thanks for reading my TED talk...at least it was short.
