I'd never caught any carp before, my lines always snap catching carps. I uses a 4 lb test rod with 2 lb lines. IT really testes my skill, and the carps around here standard size would be 15 lb+, they grow so fucking fast.
There are are standard inches size limit for freshwater largemouth / small mouth bass depending on which lakes you go to. But the local lakes around L.A, standard is 16, can't take anything bigger than 22. Some lakes standards are 18 or 22, but they are more north or south in the region, like wild lakes and very remote areas specially intended for bass fishing. |
