So I found these nifty looking sinkers today! Does anyone know how to attach them to my fishing line???
Aquariums: Is this ich? I don’t see it on any of my other fish and I don’t know what the weird stringy bits are on the tail.
I saw 7 of these doing this movement For context this was Wednesday, in Iowa and the lake has bluegill, bass and catfish. I was thinking that this fish was a carp, all of the fish I saw that day were around this same size Posted by MustangDisaster

FireBladeConCon on March 27, 2026 4:24 pm I’ve heard a lot of carp, and grass carp especially, feed like this
WinterJournalist6646 on March 27, 2026 4:24 pm I am gonna vote for grass carp with how pointy the tail is and how small and close to the tail the dorsal fin is.
