More carp action man! Watch the catfish and carp guy. The only American that knows the euro style of catching carp 🇬🇧

[@sebastiank-h1857]

Do you mean @catfishandcarp ? Cause if you didn’t know he also has a channel named outdoor boys with his kids. It’s definitely one of my favorite KZbin channels along with first state

[@srt_spyder]

@@sebastiank-h1857 outdoor boys is literally my fav channel sorry first state😂

Yes definitely Hit up Luke from Catfishandcarp or The Outdoors boys would be a good collaboration also!!

[@seabasstiandominguez5599]

@Mark Cross yes bro I caught my PB carp thanks to the breadcrumb and jello pack bait

[@rambayoufishing3274]

So here’s an idea since you’re going to be on the road. Pawn shop reel swaps. Use a reel for an episode. Next episode, try to barter with a pawn shop to swap it for another reel to make it part of the fishing challenge.

[@rambayoufishing3274]

I'm dealing with my grandmother's death and your videos are really helping me man and I just wanna say thanks, she always loved me and always was there to talk to me, just man thank you.

[@Hman-_-04]

I’m a U.K. carp angler and just thought I would give a tip. Look into tying a hair rig, and using a leadclip set up. I could carry on but everyone would get bored 😂🎣🎣

“It can barely fit the tip” That’s what she said

Yes! I love your budget fishing challenges. Its just so much fun.

[@deanbruce7557]

I love to see someone who came from bass fishing to carp and catfish. Can’t wait to see your reaction when you hook up to those 20-40 lb cats if you have an area for em. Can’t wait to see more

Man these videos are lit. Every time im hyped to see a new one!!

[@liameverett7205]

Love watching your videos pal! I'm in the UK and have done a lot of carp fishing...2 things...the crooked bail arm on the reel is not a UK thing hahaha and secondly take a look at what we call a hair rig...it allows you to use slightly smaller hooks as the bait is loaded on a hair, not hook. Great for your hook up ratio and a smaller hook means less damage to the carp you love to catch! Keep it up big man!!

[@reel2realfishing]

What a way to unwind from a crazy work day other then the first state 🔥...

If the pawn shop staff is strapped, you’re in the wrong side of town

[@everythingallin4905]

They are all strapped. If you see it you may be on the wrong side of town.

[@albertmdh]

Strapped up pawn shops can be the best place to buy obscure instruments and Vinyl records. If they mostly deal in guns, TVs, and power tools, a lot of great other stuff has been taking up space and they will practically give it away.

[@LucasPalmer05]

Everyone should be strapped

[@reaperhunter7297]

Bruv all the guys that work in the pawn shops around me are strapped lmao

You should go to tag sales and by the absolute cheapest rod and reel combo u can find. i know that is a generic idea but it would be fun to watch

[@roberto87x31]

You should do a tour of all the rods, reels, and stuff you have collected! And for a challenge you should do the Arby’s challenge, where you use Arby’s food for the bait.

[@Zooglebuns]

Here's a few things I've learned about carp fishing in NY 3-4 times a week for the last 6 months (oddly enough, its part of my job): Smaller hooks seem to work better as does less corn on a hook (depending on season, winter seems to be 1-2 pieces of corn per hook, spring/summer you can pack it on). Size 8, 10, even 12 will absolutely catch monster carp. That's not to say that a 4 or a 6 wont but I've just had better luck with smaller sizes. 8 in particular. I use barbless to help protect their mouths a little better as they are super fleshy and tend to bleed a lot and haven't had any issues with them coming off because of it (ymmv). For bait, you've already figured it out. Corn. Corn is all you need. Yes, there are a huge variety of baits for carp but when all else fails, corn will almost always work. It may depend on area though as I know there's a few spots around here that only doughballs work but I haven't fished them yet (frozen atm). You can use basically whatever type of rod and reel you want. Heavier tackle will let you get them in quicker and more securely but the fight is more fun on lighter stuff. I caught an 8 pounder a few days ago on a 5'6" ultra light with 4 pound test. It took about 6-8 minutes to get him in but it was a fantastic fight. One caveat, if you know there are monster sized ones (15+ pounds, at least in my area that's a monster, lol), its better to use heavier tackle (medium at minimum). These fish can fight extremely hard and the really big ones are very scary on even medium rods. My largest ever was 11 pounds 12 ounces on a medium rod with 10 lbs mono, it was an almost 20 minute fight. I had basically zero control over him. So, something to think about. If you can see the carp wherever you're fishing, watch how they are moving. If you see dust clouds or them "attacking" the bottom, they are hungry and will bite if they like what they see. In this situation, casting past them, then reeling in very slowly to get near them seems to work very well. Casting just to the right or left of them (a few feet in either direction, almost on top of them) can also work and sometimes they will immediately eat it on the fall and take off. Other times, they get spooked so it's a risk (summer seems the best season for this method). Bobber fishing for them can also work depending on the depth of where you're fishing. It doesn't seem to be working as well in winter as they are less hungry but in the warmer months it's a lot of fun to try. Bobber (I actually use trout floats as they make less impact when hitting the water but a lot of people use clear plastic ones), bigger split shot right underneath, 2-3 foot leader, hook, corn. I've caught many like this and its a nice change of pace as you can fish kind of aggressively with it (moving it, re-casting often, casting on top of them if you can see them). Ok, that was a book, I apologize, lol. Hopefully, it helps somewhat. I'm really enjoying the carp fishing vids though.

[@FirstStateFishing]

Ay thanks I really appreciate the tips!

[@tangomike12]

For carp use method lead with pack bait and a hair rig. Best pack bait: panko bread crumbs + strawberry jelly powder + canned corn. Good luck.

[@jaksonkeeler5505]

Carp fishing is HUGE over here in England. It’s the equivalent to bass fishing in the US Bread works well as a bait and they also like sweet fruity scents So glad to see you expanding you fishing knowledge dude! So excited for the future ! Edit: if you want to learn more about carp fishing watch Carl and Alex fishing They’re a big channel over here in the uk !

[@JnixMarshel]

Another banger. Got me going carp fishing tomorrow for sure. Weather here in central Texas is beautiful.

[@adamlone5548]

Nicely done, Mike! And that's a sweet reel, btw...

[@dkfishingadventures7253]

You should catch a CARP on the FLY ROD!! That would be awesome!

I can't believe you didn't replace the line on that reel.

[@guillermovallarta2708]

Being from L.A. all we have is pretty much Bass, Trout, and of course Ocean fishing. It’s funny you’ve been doing catfish videos. I’ve actually been looking into a lot of catfish/carp videos since it’s “winter time” and yea it’s HUGE in Europe. They have their own rigs and set ups and it’s crazy. Anywho. Fish on brotha!

[@MarkVirgulto]

Where I live in CT I catch carp on cheap white bread. Take a slice, break into half a slice, remove crust, mash the bread around the hook, not a ball but kind of a flat condensed random shape. They hit them hard.

[@Pirateswims]

Baitrunner* very good style of reels and really big within carp and cat fish fishing over here in the UK and Europe ! Also when dead-baiting for pike too ! 🇬🇧

[@csongorszoke4527]

Hey man. If you want to catch more carp I suggest to get a smaller hook, one that fits like 3 or max 4 pices of corn, and you should try feedeng them with groundbait, in colder days like these its a game changer. I recomend tehese flavours:strawberry, honey, and for cold esspecialy dark colored, fish flour flavour if you can get it. And instead of a weight zry using a feeder box wath you charge with groundbait. Dont mix the groundbait too sticky, that ruins is. And leave like 0.4 to 0.6 meter space betwen the hook and the feeder. We in Europe do it like this.😊😉

[@josephmannix5120]

Can't wait for the camper vids

I'm from Manchester in the UK, YES the Silstar is a feeder reel designed for using a method feeder. It is meant for carp, tench, bream, and small cats. Let HMU if u ever come over and can go fishing love the vids man. Fishing looks amazing over there, so hard to film over here.

[@Maksim-ox1gp]

Tip for carp fishing: you can use pea bags or method feeders with a method feeder mix ( if you are using a method feeder then add some water to it)

[@harryford4260]

narrow your feed down your feeding alot of water wich means the fish are gonna be everywhere..get them feeding in 1 spot, your doing a great job

[@pancake9186]

Lets go another fishing challenge!!!

[@supercrew63]

carp fishing is huge in the UK. Iron Maiden band member Adrian Smith is a huge carp fisherman. Nice to know a member of my favorite rock band is a fisherman is awesome.

[@lewisrossiter7321]

I live in the UK 🇬🇧 and I have been carp fishing for years now try a hair rig if your looking to target the bigger fish in winter carp will be grouped up in the deeper water then as it gets warmer try the margins using small baits

[@grant0410]

Lol I feel you on the pliers I went through like 3 pairs a month until I finally bought a pair with a cord and a sheath.

[@22stunt45]

Almost another upload with no fish but you saved the day with a buzzer beater carp! Nice!

[@johnbailey2478]

love it always great content you need to go trout fishing again or creek fishing

[@brandonherman9940]

One thing that works for me with carp is chumming the water the day before you fish, and when you go make sure it’s the same time as you chummed and they should be waiting to eat again

Good thing u remembered the net

[@josehurtado325]

If you would like to catch more carp with 🌽, try a slip sinker rig with a leader around 3 inches with a gamugatsu size six circle hook. 3-5 kernels on the hook and like u we’re doing just chum a handful every hour or so.

[@rezervationdustmccray348]

[@mitchcoleman1238]

On two separate occasions I’ve been to a local thrift shop and on both consecutive trips I found a Plano series 5520 tackle box that’s in really good condition and I got them for $2 each. I later did some online research and found that those vintage tackle boxes are now going for $30 a piece!!! I was so so so amped!!!! To this day they are my greatest treasures!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lAx10hOcKeY123]

using only 3 pieces of corn on my hooks seems to be the magic number for me

[@jofish1967]

Yes that is made for carp fishing you are meant to click it up when you put it on the rod pod or what Your using the thing you put your rod in nice reel for big carp you need leads leadclip anti tangle tubing and then a rig with a hair riged bolie or fake corn and feed corn and boilies also carp hardly feed in winter so nornally it's good to use a very bright single bait without feed this is in UK tho so Idk about America from UK 🇬🇧

[@ryanfogarty9809]

U need to use smaller hooks and less bait on the hooks so the carp can suck it up easier. Also when u cast out try put bait around where your hook landed so when carp come over and feed they can feed comfortably and u might catch more
