This is an all day recreational event/gathering of people who enjoy carp fishing. Here you will have a very good chance of catching a carp. Kent lake is a large reservoir with a great carp population, most of these carp have never been caught before. We will be chumming several weeks before the event with field corn. Michigan fishing license is needed or a daily license which is about $6.50, two rods may be used and chumming is allowed. Please be careful when landing and releasing the carp, make sure they are returned as quickly as possible and unharmed. This is the largest gathering of carp anglers in Michigan!
