I caught a 12 lb carp at elk about three weeks ago dragging a wooly bugger in fifteen feet of water near the rowing club. Great fight on my five weight. I've personally seen two other carp caught there in the last couple of years. One was a friend of mine trolling a rapala by the wall on the highway side. The other took power bait off the bottom at the gap between the lakes. Those were 21 and 17 lbs respectively. So they are definitely there.
Did you beach him? No need to have those things feeding on the trout.
