I'm hoping to get out early this weekend to go after wild little fish, but the local stockers provide some decompression after work!  

Anyone been on Cook lake or Holmes lately?

Haven't been to Cook Lake yet but was at Holmes Run Sunday for a few hours.  Started at the Columbia Pike parking and went down to the swimming pool hitting the holes. Caught two tiny sunfish and had one trout bump my fly. 

Have they stocked Cook? Maybe I'll try that Saturday morning.

Hey, catching sunfish sustains me!   I've been getting a few of those along with some creek chubs.   Cook hasn't been stocked for a few weeks it looks like, but I keep an eye out for one of my coworkers who likes to take his kid there.

Cook Lake is only about 10 minutes from my house. I have seen some good sized carp there but never had any luck. Mostly Sunfish and catfish.

Good sized carp, you say? You, sir, have piqued my interest. Tell me more.... Grass or common?

Carp sometimes breach there -- this is absolutely true.  I don't know whether they're common or grass carp, but I highly suspect grass carp given the historical use and type of lake that it is.

I suggest we meet up Saturday AM around 8am. Jeff, you bring the coffee, I'll bring the scones and Gene can bring the Karma!

Went to Holmes run boutaweekago throwing kreelex and small buggers. Caught about 7 but missed countless more strikes. Best that I've ever done there.
