Give carp a try. Probably one of the hardest fighting freshwater fish out there.

I installed the mount for the Yak Gadget quick anchor, and got a 6' Yak Attack Park n Pole. I have the 8' one, but when I hooked and fought a fish, I would have to pass the rod around if the fish moved in a certain direction. My fishing buddy had an easy time with the wind we had. He just lowered the quick anchor, then drive the park n pole thru a scupper, and he stayed in position. Install only took a few minutes. Just got a scuba reel to use to raise/lower the pole. Just have to pick a location to attach it to. Planning to test it out this week depending on the weather.

How do you like that Jackson Mayfly? Looks super stable. Started looking into that, because it's made for flyfishing, and has a cleaner deck look.
