Keep It Simple Carp Fishing | Easy Method For Catching Carp

Carp are underrated. I love catching carp they fight like no other fish

[@JoeSkylynx]

They also fight really intelligently. I have legitimately seen them run into an area with logs, and then twist line around a branch that is broken with a sharpened end. Its' fucking scary how smart they are.

[@fishermanofthesouth4112]

@@JoeSkylynx very smart. The spot I fish has a tree probably 60 or 70 foot off the bank and just about every one I hook runs straight to that tree. I’ve lost several good fish to that tree

At least they fight like no other freshwater fish. Jack and tuna family fight harder, but they are saltwater.

[@herbsuperb6034]

Sometimes you do. In the summertime Sweet Corn or Hominy will work great, because the hot weather depletes their salt, and they seek it out. But in the early spring and late fall, other baits work FAR better, and canned corn often won't work at all. Carp are remarkably picky in what they eat, when, and why. Been a lot of fun figuring them out. But what works on the lakes/rivers I fish, might not work as well in other waters. Sometimes Pop-Up Corn with sweet attractants works. Sometimes they'll touch nothing but boilies. Sometimes Corn/Hominy will catch the lion's share. Just gotta keep trying things.

I've caught 2,800+ pounds of Carp so far this season. Started targeting them 7 or 8 years ago, never looked back. They're so much fun. Not only are they fun to battle (great strength and endurance), but they're fun to figure out. Their dietary needs change radically throughout the season, and as conditions change. Figuring out what will catch them, at various times of year, and under varying conditions, has been a blast. If you've never tried it, give it a shot. I imagine you'll quickly gain an appreciation for this fish.

[@JollyFlys]

Is this why they just swam past my corn bait? Lol

Haven't actively fished for carp since I was a kid. One of those fish I forgot about. Thanks for renewing that interest. Gonna go do that after work this week. Fun video.

[@bbcustomoutdoors]

I went through a spell when I was really young where carp were the main thing I wanted to catch. Super easy to catch big fish, and a lot of fun! The only tournament I’ve ever won (I’ve only ever done 2 tournaments) was a carp fishing tournament!

[@_seekingthetruth_1447]

You do it exactly how I carp fish. When fishing is slow and I want something to kick in the adrenaline, I rig up and do exactly as you do. Sometimes, I'll add garlic salt to the corn as well. They are some hard fighting fish.

[@supercarkarson]

Caught a 10lb grass, so much fun when bass aren’t biting

Exactly! I made some hand-tied flower flies. If the bass aren't biting, I pitch my flower flies behind a bobber to fish for carp!

Justin, never thought I'd see you carp fishing! Your rig, bait, and method are one of the very best for carp--can't beat sweet corn! They are strong fighters, which is one of the reasons I enjoy targeting them. There are some carp-worshipers that won't approve of your using them for bait, but I'm not among 'em! Carp on--even if only in pursuit of giant cats!

You might enjoy the story of what brought me here for some carp tips. I live in Chicago, and yesterday and I went up to Northwestern University, a beautiful campus with a beach on Lake Michigan, for some fishing lakefront fishing, hoping for bluegill or small mouth, but it turns the little cove was TEEMING with carp: standing on the rocks, I could sometimes see ten at a time. But I've never fished for them, and all I had were artificial lures, in which they took no interest. Coming back today with some corn!

[@cheryl.539]

Justin this video was ace. I agree with you about just using basic fishing tackle to catch carp. I don't use boilies fancy hair rigs, no nothing like that just the similar set up you use. I even catch carp by float fishing too. Carp are a great fish that gives an angler a good fight and by golly its a great feeling. Thanks, I hope you produce more carp catching content.

[@Trendkill91]

Cool seeing you tackle something different. Carp fishing is really getting popular these last few years!

[@joshuariddensdale2126]

There are only a couple of lakes in my state that have carp, and further, it's illegal to use corn as bait, but carp fishing is something I've always heard good things about. They fight like no other fish alive, and being considered an invasive species, there are no regulations on them. I've seen special carp baits in Bass Pro.

[@shelbyherring92]

You can also use nightcrawlers if any of the specialized baits aren't working for ya or are too expensive (I dunno, never used carp bait from the store). All the ones I've caught were while I was going for bullheads and channel cats using worms.

[@anotherrandomperson5070]

It's only illegal to use corn to fish in 1 state

[@mannyg9059]

great video, catching carp with simple rigging. in California shore carp fishermen fish with specialized gear; poles longer than Hwy 40, buzzing sensors, horizontal pole holders, big landing nets which may also land, blue fin tuna and chum using a David and Goliat type sling shot and land sonar floating sensors. l remember what my daddy told me when I was small "Don't ever spend a dollar on a ten-cent problem" It seems like one need "deep pockets" to fish for "catch and release" scavenger fish in my state. The bait: corn kernels same as you. Ha-Hai-Ha, thanks for posting. "Gee dad, this carp tastes like mud" lol Thanks for posting.

[@steventurner8428]

I use the same rig here in South Australia for carp and many salt water fish. It is the simplest rig possible and here it's just called a running rig. Stick a circle hook on the end and let the fish catch itself. In Australia they are a noxious fish and can not be returned to any water way. They are not often eaten but do make great fertilizer for the vegetable garden. A very strange bait I use for carp is red raspberry licorice. Carp love sweet stuff and this is great. Just get small bits like corn size slide onto hook cast and be surprised.

[@KillerBeeOutdoors]

I bowfished as well Justin. Shot a 200lb 7'2 inch gator gar here in Texas. I quit doing it and would love to catch some carp,buffalo and gator gar on the rod and reel. Might have to try some of that myself. Great video man.

Funny story on what brought me here today. Saw some kids down by the creek yesterday fishing and I went down and bullshitted with them for a few they were also fishin for bass as I was. Been fishing the creeks around here for a minute and sure enough he snagged him a 10 pound carp on a little rooster tail never seen anything like it before. He pulled it with a 4 pound test on top of it. Kid was glowin now I gotta learn more about these sucker's lol.

[@trinidadonassis7411]

This is how I fish for carp. A good ole fashioned Carolina rig, a #4, and some Jolly Green Giant sweet corn. The most important piece of gear is the rod holder. Seen many rods take off like torpedoes into the lake.

I had no idea what a carp was, had set my pole down to terrorize the minnows in the bucket, I didn't even see it go, I just heard it 🤣 Every chance I got I would warn people, don't leave your rod sitting or propped on a bench, they wouldn't listen and next thing you know, their pole turns into Kerri Strug doing cartwheels out into the lake.

[@shelbyherring92]

Carp are really great freshwater fish to angle: they get decently sized (all the ones I've caught have been over 10 lbs.), they put up a helluva fight, and they are a welcome surprise when you're fishing for bluegill or cats... since they hit crawfish, shrimp, and worms. Light tackle, medium tackle: doesn't matter. I had a 20 pounder hit my catfish rod that I loaded up with two big nightcrawlers on a circle hook a couple weeks ago. That was an exhausting, exhilirating fight. The pain was netting the thing as I fishing from a pier about ten feet above the water.

One thing people don't mention about carp is that in order to catch them using any kind of bait, you need to regularly feed the fish so they're considering said bait as a food source, carp in isolation like in unfished ponds strictly eat a plant diet and won't even look at any corn or bread ball on a hook.
