Shallow Water Battle Zone!!! Action Packed Carp Fishing Adventure

On this kayak fishing trip, I hit a shallow backwater creek in search of the most underrated fish in the united states, the common carp. I baited an area with sweet corn and the bite was on almost instantly. It was an action packed adventure with a ton of carp being caught.

More carp videos!

[@yakfishingguy7037]

Warms my heart to see the carp fishing, they are so fun to catch, easy to get to bite, fights like a monster. Its my go to for taking kids fishing, bait smells good and they can play while the rods are waiting on bites.

[@biggametracker1]

As a carp guy I’d love to see you target them more often! They get big!

[@garynorden1117]

Yeap me too

[@MrDalebenberger]

Yes, please continue doing this. I’m glad to see you haven’t been spoiled by catching all them huge kitties. I think every fish has value and it’s better to catch something than nothing. Love this one.

[@TheFishingExpat]

Carp are actually an under appreciated fish to catch back home in the states, they’re super popular here in Germany and Europe where I live now

[@corkyvanderhaven3391]

Good fight, no doubt from 5-20lbs is all I know, though But fun

[@tnsteele95]

Just about have to net those carp to prevent hook pulls. Great to see you fishing for them occasionally. People mistakenly call them "invasive" but the common carp was actually stocked in most lakes and is considered a naturalized species. It's the Asian Carp that is designated as invasive.

[@hiphop666]

I love Asian's

[@shanedavis1367]

Makes me so happy seeing someone with such a following carp fishing with such respect. I’m sure it’s everywhere but here in Texas people regard carp as “trash fish” for some reason, throwing them on the bank and senselessly killing them when they’re caught. Thanks Justin! Keep it up!

[@zacharylong3910]

I know in the state im in, unless its a true carp, its illegal for us the release them back into the water. Generally when i catch a carp, bufflo, or drum ill cut em up and through the chunks in the water.

[@M3talB3ak]

@@zacharylong3910 Drum and Buffalo are both native species they're likely not illegal to release

[@lencarter4637]

I caught this one last night using your method and advice when the cats aren't biting in Oklahoma city

[@thejourneyman8890]

In some bodies of water, they're actually invasive, but if you gotta kill them, use them as bait at least. Technically they naturalized in the US at this point and people kill them because they assume they're still invasive.

[@M3talB3ak]

@@thejourneyman8890 Drum and Buffalo are native to North America. Carp are introduced

[@jasonrowland1594]

Loving the variety on this channel lately! I love catfishing, but I love all types of fishing too. The bass tournaments, ultralight, and carp fishing is great and very informative. I love how Justin explains his techniques and what he is thinking in terms of choosing the spots, etc.

[@timshoff4593]

It doesn’t matter what type of fish it is, as long as it puts a bend in your pole. Great video Justin. Keep ‘me coming

[@EasyModeFishing]

Definitely do more carp fishing! You’ll get to stock up on catfish bait over the weekend and have fun while doing it and make a video of it!!!

[@willloy8901]

Much better than any day of 9-5! JJ, EliasV fishing gave you a shout out in his latest video. You have fans all over the world!

[@ToddLindsay630]

I've never understood why carp don't get targeted more. Pound for pound, they are a hell of a fighter. Some of those bigger ones feel like they have shoulders! Great video. Thank you.

[@rb032682]

About 25 years ago, my (now ex-) in-laws lived across the street from a small private lake which was owned by the residents of that neighborhood. The lake was full of large carp up to around 25 lbs. My son and I spent many hours fishing that lake. My favorite fishing was to catch those big carp on ultra-light tackle. 7-lb line with a matching rod & reel and small treble hooks covered in vanilla-flavored dough. I miss those days fishing with my son.

[@ramrodrymensnyder2648]

Love the carp content man! Love it all, ultralight, bass tourneys, love it all. I spent the days of my youth chasing monster carp in the upper Allegheny river. Pollution killed them all off in a matter of a couple years. Breaks my heart to think about.

[@lonniehollifield133]

Same here in Broad river, still have one company I figure dumps often into the river.

[@CatchingDinosaurs]

Im glad your promoting other fish species as well as Catfish you really are on an incredible carp fishery, if you prechum spots you wont be able to get a bait to the bottom before your bit. in case anyone was wondering common carp can grow to be about 3 pounds in their first year of life, carp guys will suggest a rubber coated net to protect their slime coat. Those spotted gar were indeed mating pretty neat too see

[@coltwasham6910]

Even big carp make great bait. Bleed em into a bowl, by snippin gills. Save the blood. Fillet and cut fillets into bait size chunks and soak the chunks in the blood. You WILL NOT regret it. Thanks for another great video!!!!

[@CST-ft9dv]

I know a lot of people consider them trash but not me. I love Carp fishing!

[@randystone4903]

Fishing for carp is fun! Daddy used to tie a burlap bag of corn to the bank for a few days to chum carp and catfish. Guaranteed catching day for the kids.

[@dougiemac8417]

LOL....That laugh!!!! The laugh of Victory. Another awesome vid.

[@az_cat_girl]

I love carp. And when Justin catches carp, 😍😍😍😍

[@1BigCountry143]

More Carp fishing videos Justin! Pound for Pound the carp fight is awesome! 🎣🎣🎣

[@johnreinhart4651]

There is so much I wanted to say as I was watching this vid. Brought back so many memories from growing up fishing since around three or so years old. But I actually targeted carp for quite some time way back when.... But I have to admit I never actually used corn, believe it or not. Used to make my own alfalfa bait that would make people hate me for catching carp right and left when they are still waiting on something to eat their crawlers. Yeah, carp is an underrated fish not just to fight but to eat also. Thanks Justin for the flood of memories.

[@solid_fsg_4874]

Underrated fisherman right here!! Justin can do it all!! And very well!!!

[@vickiestill7382]

I enjoy your videos very much!! Even what you call mistakes! My family was always like you said. Their attitude was get rid of carp! But my ex-husband made me some fried fish and wouldn't tell me what it was until after I tasted it. He cut it in bite-size pieces and rolled it in a mixture of cornmeal and spices and deep fried it. Let me say, first, I am NOT a fish eater!!! But I LOVED that!!! It was delicious!!! It had a very light fish taste, unlike bass which I can't stand!!! And much to my amazement, it was carp! He said the secret is in how they are cleaned (prepared, dressed). 🤗 And, by the way, the carp he got it from had to weigh 30 lbs. or more. It was every bit of 4.5-5ft. long and 16"-18" from the top to the bottom! It was HUGE!!! 👍

[@jimpage601]

Justin's two channels: Kayak Catfish and Kayak Carpfish!

[@johnmccarty755]

I targeted carp for the first time this year because i watched you use corn. Worked just like advertised. I used #2 octopus hooks and did not lose any fish.

[@randysmith3174]

Dad started me carp fishing and it's something I've done for almost 40 years. You get one 35 lbs or more and u got a really good fight on your hands. Plus when your fishing right in the Love Shack you will get all kinds of action. Im all for more carp videos man!!

[@jackiemason2145]

I don't care what you fish for I'm going to watch👍

[@MattLaClear]

Excellent program change given the weekend traffic. That's how you grow a channel.

[@Mikeypaulslingshots]

whaaaaat! a carp video 51 mins long?! my staturday morning is now complete

[@TennZen77]

I like that.... "Fish burnout!" You should start Pinks for Fish. LOL

[@mikeh122074]

Thanks Justin. I really look forward to watching these videos when I get home from fishing every day. Keep up the great work

[@T.Z89]

Carp are underrated ! Always a blast to catch !

[@tomcat2581]

His accent just reminds me of hank hill just a relaxing southern voice on some water you can definitely listen to my man and feel like you’re out there catching carp

[@gerdusvanwyk9326]

Here in South africa 🇿🇦 carp fishing is big. There is different strops(RIGS) to use for carp fishing. We put feed and bait on the same time out, on this way you create feeding spot and your hooks are out. The aim is to cast on the same spot every time . You use a spring with cooked maise that is put through a grinder or dry popcorn mix. The strop is called a rietflei or you can use a boer strop. Nice to see your videos . Gerdus

[@bobbytheys6571]

Me and my dad fish for carp every time we go to my camp we’ve caught some true giants over the years the best part is we’ve also caught some giant channel catfish with corn while trying to catch the carp anyway I’d love to see more carp videos from you anyway tight lines stay safe and god bless you and your family

[@YakShoreOutdoors]

I love carp fishing. I have been doing it for years now.

[@clarkallen4541]

Grew up fishing for carp in a shallow river near my house. Same exact concept...chum them up and then wait. Great thing about carp is they are usually willing to bite when nothing else will. Thanks for the video...enjoyed it.

[@fishin-afamilytradition524]

Going through rewatching videos, I love these carp videos and the longer ones as well. Have a blessed day Justin.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Teri! I appreciate you rewatching them

[@MachinamaCaves]

Common carp are as fun as any other sport fish! Might have to try method leads and some pack baits if you continue with these videos. I enjoy your carp videos as much as the catfish videos!!!

[@senaidd4240]

Keep on Killin it with the carp videos man!

[@marshlandoutdoors2592]

Man those carp make good cut bait for jug lines and even better fertilizer for the garden

[@daveward1935]

Cats are my fav, but when not much else is hitting the carp are a lot of fun. Early season/ice out are mighty good eating when brined and smoked properly ;) A perk is that you can eat the bait.....lol A bait that I've used that works great is a mix o Jiffy cornbread mix and strawberry jello. Cook it gently in a sauce pan and mould it on to a treble hook like any other dough-ball. It isn't much good in heavy current, but great in the backwaters.

[@kevincunning3131]

Yes Justin on the carp.. we love these in the uk 🇬🇧

[@MegaVincentg]

We love the carp videos also brother!They are very underrated!

[@whiskergetter1986]

Do you ever catch yourself talking to the cameras when your not even filming?

[@zacharylong3910]

You ever tried snagging carp? Its so much funner because you dont have control of the fish and fight there full power.

[@andyscoey3593]

I just love when you say "small hook No 4". I use 12 or 10 and fish for 20lb fish with no worries. Great video, and such a different style compared to UK .

[@californiaheartbreak5111]

Catfish and carp all day brother! Love the content. Been long time waiting. Thanks Justin.

[@johnnystephenson6908]

Love this channel now even more! This is my favorite type of fishing! So much fun and great fights! Thanks food these videos and all your videos

[@jasonsparks4601]

God bless you for showing the world how fun you can have with carp fishing!!!

[@lonniehollifield133]

Today, I went to a friend's pond that was stocked back in the late 70s with every fresh water fish that's known here in the Carolina area including common carp, I love carp fishing but never tried the wild carp before, my Ambassador 6500c3 were screaming and I only baited with corn and would toss out corn by the handful, it's like hooking up to a truck, best fight ever. Thanks for the idea!!

[@terrybailey4600]

You might look for a way to target the larger carp? It would make the challenge even more interesting. Nice video!

[@DeerLordAdventures]

That sweet corn works great in some deer chili too! 😉

[@jamesbryant5944]

Carp are great fun and can be as wary as any fish in the water. I've caught some big ones on ultralight tackle and they are a blast!

I really enjoy when you carp fish

[@MrGrendel65]

Any type of fishing is always fun give me more !!!!!!!! Love your videos

[@jamesg90]

The bumps you mention at 33:44 are most likely tubercles that male carp develop during spawning season

[@Hill_Billy_Without_A_Hill]

They eat cotton from cottonwoods too. I think they like the oils. I remember my great grandpa using cotton seed running trot lines for carp. It came in sheets and he cut them in squares with circular saw. I think they liked the oils so much they rolled around until they got hooked or something. I was real young, and don't know all the details, but remember some of it.

[@larryoliver9915]

Carp fishing is fun they sure do put up fight that's why i like to fish for them beside they good bait for catfishing 👍👍

Justin buddy you switching it up for us we love it bro for sure getter done

[@fishin-afamilytradition524]

I have sore lipped my share of carp when I lived in Colorado. Haven't ever targeted them. They were nice by-catches while catfishing. In Missouri we have lots of Asian carp and I catch those on the Missouri River. I filet them and turn them into catfish lol. You could post a video fishing for anything and I'd watch it. Great videos all the time and great laughs with you.
