In the spring my main goal will be to get a 40lb carp... i'm certainly due catching one after all the 20's and 30's i've had. I came close to it last year with a 36lber. Currently my best is 38lb 12oz from a lake in France.
During the summer i'd like to spend a lot more time bass fishing but still take some time to target muskie and get a few salmon trips in.

Couple of questions....
1, Can I be there when you land a 40lb carp, what a sight that would be
2, What kind of tackle does someone need to catch a 40lb carp
3, Are you looking for someone to tag along who has not yet caught but would like to target carp at least once this year?

The gear i use is all the european style carp gear.. 12ft Rods big shimanno baitrunners, electronic bite alarms etc... oh but i don't mind using canadian grown corn.

Here's what my setup looks like

Sure if you want to get out and catch a few fish you're more than welcome to give it a go... I think nearly everyone i took out last year had a few 20lbers.
