guitarselbo5 · 02-14-2005, 11:23 PM

from the airport you would take 101 south to highway 85, take it all the way down to almaden expswy, and go abotu 3 miles and its on your left when you intersect coleman

i got it ..thanks..

sorry I dont' use AIM. What size of carp are u talking about?

guitarselbo5 · 02-14-2005, 11:28 PM

ive only caught the 4-6 pounders, but i have seen some that look 3 times the size. also i have never tried it in the winter, only the summer. when they are there there is abotu 40 of them swarming, but they arent always there. i live really close to the lake so i can just go see if they are there and if they are i go grab my rod
