Most of the local rivers have good populations of carp. Try some of the slower moving sections and/or ponds located along the French river, Quinebaug river, etc. I’ve had good luck in the past with balled up white bread for bait. Haven’t really tried for them yet this year, but I saw some big ones while kayaking the Quinebaug earlier this spring.]
