CARP IN THE BATHTUB: There aren't many places in the average-sized apartment to stash a 33 1/2-inch, 19 pound carp for the day or so the fisherman might want to keep it around. But 13-year-old Jeff Cox, who lives in Trenton but has been visiting relatives at 803 E. Kingsley St. here, solved the problem by installing the big fish and a smaller one in the bathtub. Young Cox caught the lunker in the Huron River at Delhi Park, using a breadball for bait. It took him 30 minutes to net and beach the fish since he was using only an eight-pound-test line and a delicate fiber-glass pole.
