So my dad has fished the Charles River for years catching big carp. Now I'm gonna try the Merrimack river. I have a general idea of were I want to fish but if anyone knows a specific spot just let me know
Funny enough, a not bad spot is the walkway wall on the UMASS South Campus side near Burbanks (I think) ice cream or the Hess station. Go to the break in the wall at the parking lot and it's easier to land them.
Best spot is down on route 110 in dracut. There is a drainage line that empties into the river and its wide (~15 feet). The Carp wait at the end. It's hard to say where it is and parking to fish it can be a hassle (police) but used to do well there for carp.

Lots of fond memories fishing the Merri up Nashua way. Almost lost my rod (and the lawnchair that was holding it) to a big carp there on one trip some years back.
