Spring, summer, and fall, the foot bridge over the Mill Falls water fall, stream inlet into Meredith Bay is a popular spot to fish for large carp from the bridge, but you never see anyone do that during the ice derby? It's like these large carp are right there, and get totally ignored? You can see them in the water, easily, from the foot bridge.

Is it just because they are not a pickerel, trout, or salmon and no one wants to catch a carp?

Me, I usually go to the nearby McDonald's and catch an Alaskan Pollock, two for $5 or so, no $47-license required, but these easy fishing carp sure is tempting!
