I am new to carping and was wondering at what point of the year its worth starting to try for them.

May should be a safe time to start fishing for them. You gonna try ponds, lakes or rivers?

I'm going to try the CT river and a few small ponds/lakes I know.

small ponds should be good to go right now. Give it a shot this weekend

We have been getting them in small ponds just gotta figure out where they are hanging out because it doesn't seem on the average day yet they are doing very much wandering. Try near tree branches and stuff and keep ur eyes peeled for signs of life. It'll be tuff to fish the river until it goes down a little bit but give it another week or two and it should be very doable.
