I only got to watch half your video this morning before my shift but I got the other half watched 16 hours later lol. Busy day but happy I got to finish it! Nice Carp you got there Kevin! 🎉😊 Those things fight hard, I would love to fish them someday. What are their migratory patterns yearly?

[@KevinRapkochFishing]

Yo Brody! I hope your shift went well, my friend! That's a great question and I'm not super sure about their normal migratory patterns. Our canals kind of keep them contained to different sections in the city, but you definitely have me interested... Time for some research! I really enjoyed watching your video today, brother. Tight lines, and keep up the great work! 🙂🙂✌️🎣
