So many of the UA-cam videos just show the catching part and they seem to go out of their way not to show how they are catching them. But you take the time to teach people fishing methods, and that’s why I never miss an episode of your videos. Thank you!
This is awesome watching y’all fish together…😂 We went to visit my mom in North Carolina a couple weeks ago and there’s like a little neighborhood pond that anyone in the community can fish… I took my little nephew down there and I stole a can of moms corn out of the pantry and her can opener because I knew I had saw some huge carp in there just riding by looking… Anyway long story short, he caught like a 25 pound grass carp and it made my day watching him fight that beast…😂 Ole Uncle Justin put him on the biggest fish of his life so far…😁 That makes a feller proud…😀💪🏼
Back in the 70s, my dad and I, used to catch 10 to 20 of these carp while trying to get our limit of catfish, fishing on night crawlers,in beaver lake, NW Arkansas
When I was a kid my friend and I were fishing on a local creek in east central Alabama and noticed carp feeding on Mulberries that were falling into the creek, we removed the lead and cork and put a Mulberry on the hook and throw our bait out in front of a feeding carp, we caught so many that we got tired. An older man came along and called the carp Buglemouth Bass, LOL
When I was kid in sixties we caught them in the rouge river in Detroit, we just put corn ( several kernels) on a hook with a couple big split shots. Many times we’d soak corn 🌽 n kool aid or jello flavored with fruit best was cherry and grape. Had Zebco 33’s with the old stiff 10 or 12 pd. Line caught many big carp on those rigs. Ten pound was a big fish, although I saw bigger caught. First fishes that were regularly released instead of kept, in those days if a fish was legal size we usually kept it.
It is these "common carp" that are the Friday night specialty and special at about every restaurant and tavern up and down the Mississippi & Illinois Rivers! Score it, fry it and put a big old slab between two pieces of bread with tartar sauce or even a nice slice of onion........Good Stuff Maynard!!! WOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Thanks for making this video! I actually asked you a while back to make a video on carp fishing. I’ve been wanting to fish for carp for a long time. I’ve been trying to learn from UA-cam how to fish for them, but no video I’ve found explains things very well. You have an ability to clearly explain the important subtleties of the tactics and gear. I finally understand how the method feeders work! And details like how you need to be careful about pulling the hook out of their mouths. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are awesome!
Another great carp video from The Machine. Thank you for adding in the clips teaching us your packed bait and your techniques. Keep the carp content coming! You caught some good ones, and you make me want to go catch my own!!
Never thought about taters in a carp bait before. I’ll have to try that. My typical recipe for a single day is pretty much a 1:1:1:1 ratio. 1 can whole kernel corn 1 can oatmeal 1 can bread crumbs 1 pack of jello mix. Usually strawberry or cherry. But any sweet flavor will work. Also there’s 28 grams to an ounce, so for little to no current, I’ve found 24g to 30g work great.
My uncle showed me how to make a great carp bait... Take a slice of bread and spread with a generous amount of peanut butter. Sprinkle with oat meal and sugar. Cover with anothet slice of bread like making a sandwich. Drizzel with vanilla flavoring on top and mash all togethet and put into a baggie. Optional on a single hook we used to take a ball point spring over the hook. You only need a nickel to quarter size ball of bait. I have had my pole drugged in the lake many times...
You can take Wheaties cereal fix a double hand full in hands hold it under water where it can't come out of your hand make a dowe ball squeeze out exess. Let sit in sun pinch a plug mash around hook works great. Strawberry jello powder an flour work great to. Caught big red carp an bufallo carp in Ohio river with both. Good luck
Hey, Richard. Great job on those Carp. They are a strong fightin fish. Personally, I don't know what else they are good for. Tried eating one once, didn't really care for it, but they are fun to catch. Thanks so much for all the knowledge and tips that you share with us. God bless y'all and stay safe on your travels to these fishing spots.
This really inspired me to go and buy these ingredients and get it done. We had an amazing time on the water last night. We ended up catching 6 carp all over 11 pounds and one that was over 18 lbs.
He's a great American fisherman, he'll fish anywhere. Anywhere there's water, Lord knows he'll be there. He's just like a gypsy, mighty hard to hold. Great American fisherman, got fishin' in his soul.
Always enjoyed catching carp and i am glad to see others enjoying it too. They do pull like a freight train. Tell us about your mystery fishing partner. The suspense is killing me.
Knew a couple old gals that would pressure cook carp. They said it was good eatin. The cooking process would make the bones as soft as canned sardines.
I remember catching the biggest bass in the USA on a jerk bait, but whenever I finally got it to the bank, it was about a 10lb carp that slapped my lure with its tail.
I did alot of carp fishing as a kid. All we ever used was a box of quaker oats. Woulda got scolded for using the good groceries. Still caught alot of carp/catfish with plain ol quaker oats.
What everyone in my area call "trash fish"... a very common grass carp. Without question, some of the most delicious fish I've ever eaten. Very clean flavor and flaky texture. The only reason I don't fish them more often is because of the bones. I have to take a long-winded approach to making fish patties just to remove all of the bones.
I once hooked a carp in the tail with a 2” Rapala, no leader, and just 6 lb. line. Holy moly! It took nearly 30 minutes to bring that fish in so I could unhook him!
I know so many people who have custom made baits for every fish that swims.some good corn that isn't to soft is all you need to catch carp.cornmeal is something that people add vanilla or other stuff to catch carp,they swear by it but don't ever catch many fish.i use just a hook no weight or swivel and twelve lb stren and I learned to leave some slack in the line.carp are fairly smart fish and shy away from a line with extra tackle on it.if I chum it's 4or 5 pieces of corn or better yet some of the water in the can of corn because they don't eat the chum instead of the corn with my hook in it I'm sure you're prepared bait works well but I just use corn.carp fight like big stripers do , definitely not trash fish
Nice way to feature ifish by posting this fine video and catching big fish! I have eaten carp; they're good fish, but it takes a strong hand to clean 'em! God bless ALL of us! WWG1WGA
That is a mini , better bring heavier line... I have been spooled by 40-60 lb Carp a few times on the Ohio . Chum is the key , throw chum in a spot for 2 days . Then come back with chum on a hook
Hello Richard I tried searching for Anthony Finland pack bait holders and cannot find anything could you send me the link please happy fishing my friend I love your videos very informative greatly appreciate all the time and effort
Many bodies of water I fish that have carp are stocked with trout and therefore state regulation prohibits the use of corn. Can I just leave it out or is there something you would replace it with? Thanks!
Absolutely! You can use a few pieces of a raw sweet tator. Cut them about the size of a kernel of corn and put them on the hook. Also those small fruity colored marshmallows work good to! They will even float the hook up a little. Hope this helps! God bless
Yeah man, ain't nuthin like them Carp, love catching them! Cut my teeth on carp, literally, my Daddy taught us carp fishing when I was about 5-6 years old, and he loved catching them. But yeah I use canned sweet potatoes and Wheaties or just just ol' cheap bran flakes will work and that's all you need, work it up until the consistency you want and I don't fool with canned corn or any corn cause channel cats love corn and I don't use on account of that. When I go carp fishing that's all I want to catch, and with that sweet potato bait, I have caught a good flathead, every once in a while, believe it or not, I reckon they get a sweet tooth too, lol! But I use that sweet potato bait as a doughbait or doughball actually, and put it around my hook, as tight as it sticks it'll stay on the hook for a while too, just leave the hook point showing, also if you want, you don't have to but you can add wheat germ to the bait, it's like an added attraction, once you're bait hits the water that wheat germ will float up off your bait, but like I said it's not necessary.
@richard thank you for a great video and taking the extra time to explain everything so perfectly! Do you or @ifishcatfish have any carp cooking recipes you could share? My family have caught some carp at our home lake, but never keep any because we don't know a good method for cleaning and cooking. Thanks for any help!
For the pack bait Walmart or even a dollar store. Now for the method feeder and the fishing supply, I had to order mine from amazon and eBay. I couldn't find any method feeders in my local stores. God bless and thank you for watching!
So.... Everyone's doing this break test. But... What if it's running water? Not just still water, like what Yall testing? Whats the break up time? 2 minutes may seem like a long time. But in a different element... Idk... It may be less. Please let me know... Just curious.
Your right it changes things! In this particular situation we was fishing a cove which is a great place in the summer for carp. But in more of a river situation you'll need a heavier feeder and pack bait that is really like playdoh in consistency!
Awesome!!! Now we know how to get these invasive asian implants out of our american water systems, and help restore the natural ecosystems in each of our states!

You can sleep till 10, go fishing in the middle of the day, and still have a great carp fishing day in the summer, when nothing else bites..
Back in the 70s, my dad and I, used to catch 10 to 20 of these carp while trying to get our limit of catfish, fishing on night crawlers,in beaver lake, NW Arkansas
lake fayetteville also has a ton!
Same for me except I use chicken liver.
I also catch them on red worms
When it’s the summer doldrums and nothing else will bite the carp bite is unmatched. Pound for pound one of the toughest freshwater fishes.
Small marshmallows the fruit flavored 1s is what I put on my hook. Works amazing, and it floats up just enough to stay right off the bottom.
This!!! I just learned this not long ago
Canned carp taste like salmon to me…both make great fish cakes 👊😎
RICHARD GENE put the fear of GOD in ALL the CARP with this new video. They sniff the corn and go WOOOOO!!!! 😂😂
This made me actually laugh out loud thank you.
@@eosneos Don't thank me thank Richard Gene! j/k 😅 He's the inspiration for all of us fishing youtubers. WOO!!! I said.... WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Catfish will feed on those berries as well.
Large Scale "Buglemouths" that's a good one 👍

Your passion is contagious! Keep it up Mr. Gene!!
Excellent show!!!
BTW, Carp is good eating!
Compared to What 😅
I don’t think it’s these common carp or grass carp that are good eating. Although some people do eat them. I smoked one once and it wasn’t good.
If your Asian perhaps.americans don't eat garbage bud

I've had it and Buffalo sandwiches around Alton and it was very good.
Thanks Richard for the informative Carp video. I've been waiting for years for you to do one. I too really enjoy carp fishing

Just pour a can of strawberry cola into a big box of Wheaties and mix it with your hand 😉 Your recipe works good too 👊😎

Fishing is the best thing on the planet! Waking tomorrow and chasing the big bass bite!
That’s a great bait! I use big red, off brand wheat’s, and few drops of vanilla extract. Used to kill’em!
Knew a couple old gals that would pressure cook carp. They said it was good eatin. The cooking process would make the bones as soft as canned sardines.
Just chillin, watchin another great video, gettin over hernia surgery , so toss another bag around for your fellow fisherman!

Awesome video Richard 🔥🔥🎣🎣 nothing like Carp fishing awesome fighting fish 🐟
Thanks!
Could you do a up close video of tying various line knots
Full moon w/e with periods of rain...i did not wanna get wet so i watch RG hook a jaw (plan b).
Great video friend God bless you!
Million dollars worth of fun!!❤ 👍 👍
Awesome fishing! What's that bed you were putting the fish into while unhooking? I need that! Thanks
Riverview Florida checking in making sure you’re doing ok
Wheaty balls, catches them for us.😊
Just use corn pop cereal on the hook with your bait packed around it boom carp catching
This is like going to the grocery store and putting food back on the shelf after you paid for it
Thank you for the blessing

Do you ever fish for gar Richard? I have been seeing some monsters, but they dont even look at my bass and crappy lures.
He has videos on it
Could you tell the measurements of the ingredients in this recipe?

could never understand the catch and release credo. i fish for fun and food.
aint nothing wrong with that brother! The Lord made them to eat, and if I'm fish hungry I keep them to!!
Well aren't you just special. If you don't like his credo then don't watch his videos
@@ericjett8097 i like the vids just fine thank you. what i don't like is throwing away food.
