[@jimmyedwards2252]

Enjoy 😉 the videos. Keep up the good work 👏

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Jimmy! It is much appreciated

[@Greenmaninthedesert]

I don't care what you fish for. I like your style and commentary. Watching you fish is the reward. Thanks for sharing!

[@andybaker5466]

Another good one! Those carp are so fun to catch! I remember some 45 years ago my brother and I hooked up on big one on the back waters of the Ohio River. We took turns fighting it for 2 hours on light tackle with 10 pound line, we might have lost it had he not jumped in the water and rassled it the bank! An old fisherman fishing nearby and give us the doughball we caught it on guessed it weighed around 50 lbs. Never learned his recipe of that doughball cause he died before we got to fish with him again!

[@captnse]

Mr. Justin “Kayak Carp & Catfish”! 👍🏼 Love these back cove fishing sessions you’re doing, whatever type of fish you catch! Exciting vids!! Keep them coming!! 👍🏼

[@skullrushfishin]

Crazy .I been catching carp n catfish for 40 years and it's just now getting famous lol . Awesome vid Justin..keep up the great work

[@chancey47]

Been carp fishing for over 25 years. Fishin' is always good. One pointer: Don't put anything on the end of your hair, just make it long enough for the bait, you are using, and hook the loop back on the hook after threading your bait on the hair. Works every time, and saves a lot of hassle.

[@KayakCatfish]

Good info. Thanks!

[@randyshaw8613]

Pound for pound carp are one of the best fights on rod and reel

[@jasonrowland1594]

Another great carp video! I had the thought that most of these carp you are catching have probably never been caught before b/c so few people fish for them. They sure do fight like crazy! There's no telling how many carp there actually were in that spot. As you said, it could have been thousands. Loved the rock star reference with the scales lol!

[@artnicol2792]

i appreciate the scenery you're sharing. The reflection of clouds and tree line on the water mirrors the amazing!

[@lcrecel]

Like another gentleman said you do a great job explaining your technique on fishing and also make it very entertaining. Now for the rest of the story as Paul Harvey always said. I was a bass fisherman for around 40 years and worked PR for a few tournament organizations but now and then i needed a break and would take one of my grandsons fishing. As he got a little older he would go catfishing and carp fishing. When he was still young he wanted to go carp fishing so we would hit the waters of a local water shed that was actually used to furnish the DNR with carp for the state fair here in Indiana. One night we went out and it was a little slow but it was one of the first actual carp fishing trips he had been on. After about an hour he got a hit that bent his pole nearly double . Now keep in mind. Dylan was a little skinny fart and was still young. Anyway the 7 pound carp pulled that boy down a bank and then back up it about 3 times. LOL I kept asking him if he wanted help but he insisted on bringing it in on his on. It was a trip that you had to be there to really enjoy it. The big thing is that these are one of the hardest fighting fish and can be caught easily in shallow water. Bottom line is for you hardcore bass anglers put down the bass rods and give this a try. You might get your fingers dirty but you could have the time of your life. Rock on and keep your rod stiff and your lines tight.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Larry!

[@65FullMoon83]

Enjoying the Carp Video Series! One of the hardest fighting fish that swims! They'll definitely put your tackle to a test or bust it up! 🙂👍

[@joeziegler9054]

Another good one Justin! Thanks for the non stop action. Keep the good stuff coming. 👍🏻

[@otisstodghill1448]

The best all around fishing tutorials ever. Keep up the great work.

[@fishinfromscratch5484]

I love carp as much as you do Justin. Tons of fun and very little competition.

[@scottyyyboss8214]

Thanks for the upload!

[@guitarrwd]

Love watching your videos man. Love how you keep it simple and your videos are fun. They inspire me to try new rigs and baits

[@leemowers9395]

Thanks Justin for another great video.

[@leehenderson9605]

I can only speak for myself I watch your page cause u love fishing

[@be643]

Great advice and insight, Justin

[@timfowler]

This brings back memories from when I was a teenager fishing under mulberry trees using the berries for bait and catching carp up to 25 and 30lb. The initial runs are intense 👍. Might just have to get myself out and get some of this action.

[@travisgentry5494]

Love the catfishing videos but these carp action videos are something to watch!!! "Can't get my words out I'm pumped" keep dropping lines bud!!!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Travis!

[@travisgentry5494]

Your welcome brother!!!

[@roberthowe5315]

Great second video justin thanks keep enjoy that tug there nothing like it for fun

[@andrewclark8627]

Another great video. Keep learning, keep fishing, keep enjoying life

[@bobbynewton9247]

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

[@Snakebeard1970]

Fantastic video with no nonsense content. Tripled up would be a rush! I have been addicted to carp fishing for over 25 years and congratulations Justin now you are too! Good for you bro.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Ken!

[@geraldjohnson674]

I'd say give night crawlers a try for Buffalo I've caught them on that and mulberries before I also regularly catch common carp and grass carp on night crawlers as well be worth giving a try

[@KayakCatfish]

I plan on trying it

[@scottstevenson119]

I been wanting to catch some big carp. They fight so tough. I need to learn so I’ve been watching your videos daily

[@wesneal7913]

This video has got me looking forward for mine and my son's fishing trip Saturday. We are trying your technique put with baiting the area. So hopefully we have as successful trip as you have, thanks for another great video.

[@KayakCatfish]

Good luck!

[@billcoulter1984]

Busting those carp!

[@johnharriman6046]

Another nice video! Thanks.

[@jonboatmorava9115]

So awesome nice long video thanks buddy you're awesome

[@leerose9933]

If you would have gone into stand up comedy instead of fishing you would be a millionaire! Thank you so much for the internment that you provide. You're awesome Justin!!! Thank you so much for what you do!! I love the carp fishing videos! May God bless you and always keep you safe and healthy!!!

[@briansuttles6743]

great video, lots of fish and fun. not liked because, they're hard to prepare right. always give you a good fight. stay safe.

[@reneefitch29]

I am familiar with taking grandpa's knife to cut a hickory switch for him to use on my behind. Lol. And it better be a good one too ! I'm 62 and still remember doing that when I was acting up. Thank goodness I was his favorite. Lol

[@tommybounds3220]

Thank you for the video.

[@ejsajj4871]

Hey justin love the vids man i live in memphis and if you ever are down u should come to a lame out here in bartlett man would lov w to fish with you one day!

[@kennethjamerson4638]

Love the videos.

[@raygrange7312]

You guy's are so lucky. Loads of water full of never hooked wild carp. Unlike what we have in England. The carp are generally stocked fish that receive lots of pressure.

[@Meet_Me_In_The_Pit]

Good stuff bro.

[@germanitastaton2805]

Great Video

[@LeviW133]

Nice video mister Justin love your videos keep up the good work and go catch a golly whopper

[@b.j.harris9109]

Sir I really enjoy your carp videos I mean I enjoy all your fishing videos no matter what it is your fishing for. I mean I enjoy how you are always joking around with the fish and all the funny things you say just make my day. I mean even if you do go carp fishing a lot of the times you catch a cat as well. But it really is cool what you have been doing like bait an area and then going back a few day later to see what fish are there if any at all. I mean in one of your last videos you baited a couple of place and when you went back one bag was gone but the other one was still there. Well you was catching fish at the first spot were the bag was took from and you said I always tell you never leave fish thats biting to look for fish well you did and you when to your other bag and never caught a fish lol. But just goes to show you can bait a place and come back to fish it and still not catch fish. Well keep it up and till next's time GodBless and Tight Lines.

[@RedCornOutdoors]

I going to have to give it a try next time I go out on the kayak. Looks like fun

[@adventureswithbradley9768]

Have one pull you on a kayak it's a thrill of a ride once it's got speed keep it pointed to the front

[@jayarnett3566]

Awsome vedio thinks for sharing

[@anthonyirwin2636]

Wow! We get a 45 min video!

[@glenncunningham6397]

Loving the carp videos, Justin. You looked tired after that workout. 🤣🤣🤣 Have a great day!

[@KayakCatfish]

Haha! Thanks Glenn!

[@kevinssilentfishing7292]

I like how you adapt to any style of fishing. Natural born fishing man.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Kevin!

[@richardj6593]

Sir, I am a new subscriber and I have to say you have a wonderful personality and really know how to build enjoyable content. If you want to do something different to add excitement to each video, add a mystery rod and reel each trip and make it a war between you and the fish using a bass fishing set up like a medium heavy rod and 15 or 20 pound test using a standard bass reel like a curado. People will come to the channel just to see if you had to fight the fish on the light gear! Take a poll and see if subs would like to see you in a Mike Tysonesque battle with lighter tackle setup.

[@aria62ineh8]

Im starting to get into carp fishing and i saw this video amd was releived because i thought u mostly fished cats but as always you gave us another great vid and are always good at explaining things

[@gillianmiller9710]

another great video, Justin; saw your bio in Kayak Fishing Fun magazine; watching your videos has put a real desire to purchase a kayak for fishing in my heart; my only problem is that I'm 72 and have balance problems; my friend tells me that any thoughts of kayak fishing have long sailed away; I am able to walk 2 miles, but once down very hard to get up; would appreciate your thoughts about kayak fishing for retired folks; love the carp fishing videos 🙂

[@KayakCatfish]

I will have to look up their magazine. I wasn’t aware they had mentioned me. There are some stand assist bars and attachments for kayaks that can help you stand up from the seated position. Those may be helpful in your situation.

[@mikeyjr4855]

Do a collaboration with Catfish and Carp!

[@KayakCatfish]

I would love to

[@cheryl.539]

Justin these carp videos are ace. A little tip for you. Place a carp mat on the floor of the kayak. They are filled with foam about 2 inches thick and go inside a waterproof cover. So the carp can lie on something soft while you unhook it. So if the fish thrashes about it reduces the risk of injury. Just like you have a cushion for your tush...

[@jordanwalter2447]

Me and my brother were fishing a medium size river here in northern Indiana and we saw schools of a hundred carp they would just cruise through like trains. So i bet you could catch alot before you recatch

[@Mikeypaulslingshots]

I have caught carp that I caught the day before several times, but I live in the desert and my carp spot is actually a very small stream made from reclaimed sewer water from the city.

[@johndyer9232]

We used to catch common carp as long as our legs out of the ponds where I went to college. Edit: I’m 5’9” if that helps with perspective on leg length. My friend is 6’

[@pamelahewett4768]

That Friday night turn on comment is offensive! Why wait till Friday? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Monday works too.... just feed me first.... youngin, you ain't right, you ain't wrong but you ain't right! Funny stuff...

[@andrewcable6016]

Hey man don't feel bad about having trouble catching buffalos, they're notorious for being hard to hook up with and they're all over our lakes in NC and rarely get caught. The only ones I've seen that bite good are in Texas but they're a different breed that far South. Good luck and catch a bigun

[@williamjohnson817]

Don't forget the Johnson family reunion is August 6 at the rodeo arena in Athens Al this year. I know we're not related but you are welcome to attend.

[@kennethjamerson4638]

You got to teach them dam fish. Hard headed like a pit bull😄

[@ronnierigsby6360]

Hi have you ever tried using hold corn I used it alone with the cow feed this is your 2 day we would fish our spot up to 2 weeks and the bite got better each day then we would have to leave the park we were camping in

[@srilankanfishing]

Wow ❤❤

[@AlecG0]

Alright you've convinced me, carp is the next target species

[@Bornshire]

Brother, I wonder if I could talk you into doing a video explaining how to on hair rigs, stinger flies, as well as an in depth on your Carolina rig and drag rigs. I fully understand that you've done the Carolina before, however, I think you've changed your line setup since. I may be the only one asking but I'm only 200 miles from nickajack and I can't go up unprepared lol.

[@KayakCatfish]

I appreciate your interest. I will keep it in mind for future video ideas. Thanks for supporting my channel.

[@anthonyirwin2636]

Niiiiiiice!

[@FPPS.45]

How long do the cattle blocks stay good for? What kind of cattle blocks, what are they made of? Im looking for things to keep cats and carp concentrated in a spot over a longer time.

[@rvnerd7671]

One quick tip Luke passed off was if they get acting the fool, cover their eyes and they'll calm down. Love seeing carp mixed in with cats!

[@midwest_outdoors4585]

My Daughter had a carp break her off and my son caught that same carp about an hour later. Even had her hook in its mouth still. It was a first for us for sure.

[@ronnierigsby6360]

Yes they will come back we put zip ties in the tails and saw that the carp came back and were caught back after they get to feeding over a spot they come back

[@smokez4123]

I fish this pond I live by for carp and couple weeks ago I went like 3-4 days in a row and I was catching the same exact ones all 3-4 days .. but then again I’m also in a pond and not a creek

[@autisticwoodturner6614]

do you think carp fight harder than flatheads , bluecats or stripers,, what would be your rank,,loved this video, and thanks for putting it together

[@KayakCatfish]

I would rank them 1. Stripers 2. Flatheads 3. Carp 4. Blues

[@shermrock345]

I've always had buffalo bite on cut bait while catfishing

[@fakenamerton2568]

On how smart/hook shy carp are, I have a one eyed mirror that I have caught four times this month, same spot and bait each time. Also, all those stocked lakes in Europe wouldn't work out if the carp learned very much how to avoid being caught.

[@terrycolley5506]

I have a good carp spot, I am using method feeder with that pack bait and use the fake corn on a hair rig and have never got a bite. I can take the fake corn off and use regular corn and will catch carp. Any suggestions??

[@KayakCatfish]

Sounds like you just need to keep using the real corn if it’s working

[@everettsmith8088]

You need a bigger net if you intend to keep catching them big carp!! Try a drop of vanilla on the marshmallow.

[@Za86m]

The only carp I've ever caught was by accident on a Heddon tiny torpedo a few days ago. I thought I maybe snagged his side, but nope - he sucked it right up, and what a fight. With the pack bait you're using, can you keep that refrigerated for a while? I'm making my first batch soon and don't want to stink up my house lol. Enjoyed the video!

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes, the pack bait will keep for several days. Smells like strawberry shortcake

[@FISHBOY1210]

Hey man I’ve got some prototype carp attractants and would love to send you some to try out

[@FISHBOY1210]

And also loving the carp fishing videos

[@FISHBOY1210]

And also loving the carp fishing videos

[@barrygoe9451]

Can you add a link to the method feeder hair rigs please

[@KayakCatfish]

Unfortunately, they aren’t available on Amazon for me to link but big carp tackle has them for sale

[@markng4615]

Overall, these fish have omnivorous diets, which means that they eat both plants and animals. However, as generalists, they eat just about anything that they can swallow. Common food items include insects, insect larvae, clams, algae, plants, plankton, and more.

[@keithdocreed]

I know sooner or later your gonna hook a 40+ carp and I can't wait.

[@KayakCatfish]

I’m looking forward to it

[@keithdocreed]

@@KayakCatfish me too it's gonna go wherever it wants. I honestly hope you don't have many rods out when it does happen😂😂

[@Vetterrs21]

Buffalo like night crawlers

[@mtbsender7715]

First love ur vids

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks for being #1

[@justinmckinney4650]

What rods are you using here

[@KayakCatfish]

Catfish Sumo Original Chopstick rods. There is a link in the description

[@valous03]

I've caught a few this year, they are addicting to catch and the baits cheap.

[@timothyshepard5614]

Have you ever tried to use a bobber when carp fishing

[@KayakCatfish]

I have caught carp while bluegill fishing under bobbers but never specifically targeted carp with bobbers

[@fatmack8280]

Catch and eat

[@williamomara6248]

If a bluegill was as big as them carp you would have a fight on your hands for there size i think they fight the hardiest pound for pound. I mix instant rice ketchup cinnamon and hot sauce mix a ice cream bucket add alittle water or some can corn water but a lid on it in the sun gets really sticky put corn on your hook and ball it around it

[@bigbankcatfishandstriped261]

I always thought Carp fishing was fun, hell what's not to like about catching BIG FISH 🤷🏾‍♂

[@johndyer9232]

I always tell people carp are the only freshwater fish that come close to fighting like a saltwater fish.

[@JoseAguilar-lv5es]

Its starting to turn on y'all like your girlfriend on a Friday night after a nice dinner 😭😂😂😂

[@thewinds5303]

does the fake corn you use float?

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes

[@douglasmedlin7159]

I was also noticing how big their tail is compared to your hands. You look like have big hands and those carp tails look the width of boat paddles.

[@douglasmedlin7159]

Not saying the catfish don't pull hard but if they pulled as hard as the carp I don't know if you could handle them in a kayak. It would be like landing a shark.

[@KayakCatfish]

It would be a dang good time

[@douglasmedlin7159]

Its really funny you said almost the same thing later in the video after I made the comment.

[@rgroller4683]

Clip the fin you will know!!

[@soremouthfishing2591]

I'll be honest with you in my experience carp don't use their eyes that much at least it's not a main sense when looking for food smell and mouth feel play a much bigger role.

[@peterderidder9922]

Dear Justin, I could give you 20 years of knowledge in carpfishing if you want ! Just let me know The carp you catch on that lake are kind of skinny if you compare the head with the boddy. The food pressure must be verry high ... thats why you have so manny runs of carp, they are all verry hungry ;-) .

[@peterderidder9922]

All the comments of those european carp fishers are tru, 90% of the carp will remember witch smell ore bait means danger ! ! So if you notice the baits getting less you have to change from baits on the hook. Just use other flavours ! there 1001 kind of flavours ;-) ,

[@jonboatmorava9115]

Now you just threat to take the phone away from kids and they fall apart.
