40 lb carp is a hell of a goal. Where do you hunt for those in MN?Certain lakes and rivers... I cant say where, lol... I've seen some 40 pounders before when we were out, even some pushing 50, but those were in too deep of water, our arrows weren't sticking in them. I've also seen gar pushing 6ft, but my arrow just bounced right off him. Those i'll never tell where. I've had an expert from the MN fisheries dept tell me there were no such thing as gar where i'm from...

I would never tell anyone where my catfish honey hole is, or my pheasant haven that there are so many birds, you can't step 50 yards with out seeing one.
Although, I am up for trading a fishing trip for a hunt

I think we could work something out... only thing is to get to the big ones we have to use my friends bowfishing boat, so he'd want something out of it too, lol. What kind of hunting or fishing would u be able to trade?

Lets say I have a spot that is pretty much untouched, even though it is public land. I has a wild growing corn field in it that on the last day of pheasant season last year, we saw well over 200 birds among us.
It's ok if you don't want to share your spots, but if you live near fargo, it is stupid to not fish the red and it's tribs, they are basically untapped resources. I can show you sone good spots.

In fact, the state record is 31 lbs. My biggest ever is 18, and it was a hog IMO. Here is what a 40 lb carp looks like.
That is a monster, I bet that would be fun as hell to catch.

After a dam... I only know of one Dam on that river (off the top of my head).I should buy some new gear and start fishing again.
Scheels has an AWESOME deal on scheels brand rod/reel combos. The reels are actually made by Diawa, and I the rods are nearly as nice as my st croix's. $59.95 for the set! I bought two, plus the have an uncoditional guarantee, if anything on the rod or reel breaks, they give you a brand new one off the shelf, no questions asked. The guy also stringed it with some trilene XT, which made me happy. I didn't want to drope $200 plus on a river rod/reel combo. I'm very happy with them.
