[cool][#0000ff]I went by your "killing fields" first, early in the morning. Nothing in the fields and not much in the ditch. Saw some swirls but nothing good enough to shoot at.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I found the "suicidal" carp directly south of the Lincoln Beach jetties, in the flooded grass and brush along the fenceline on the other side of the little pump house. You have to drive up over that hump to get to the prime area. The fish were all over when I first got there but most of the fast shooting was on the other side of the barb wire fence. There was an old tire laying in shallow water and I don't know what the attraction was but several groups of carp came in and rolled all over it. I "re-tired" a few of them.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I am predicting that with the south winds and monsoonal flow going away this week that the fish will come back into your spot in the afternoons. Real shallow water gets cooler at night but warms up during a warm calm day. Wednesday and Thursday should be good.[/#0000ff]
