    Speaking of carp, I use to catch grass carp on acorns of all things as a child.
    I found the fish alway congregated under oak trees along the bank and put two and two together.
    No much fights like a carp.

    Using light tackle to catch big fish is so much fun, I landed a 30lb buffalo fish on 8lb monofilament line using a cheap wallmart pole called the dock demon, the battle lasted so long I actually considered cutting the line, but I just had to see that fish, and thats what fishing is all about, the battle, getting to see your fish and the great outdoors of course.

      I fought a 40 pound grass carp for over an hour on 2 pound test. Eventually I started getting impatient and ended up breaking the line. That was the third time I hooked that particular grass carp, still have yet to land it.

    Ok, nevermind. Found it. Love fishing below that dam. Caught more fish there, than anywhere else. From the mid 80s into the 90s, my dad ran a bait store right down the road from Barkley Dam. Now its just a memory, nothing left of the store

    I used to park my boat by anchor about 50 ft off the back of a moored barged used to load other barges full of grain and corn. This is about one mile down river of Cincinnati. We took everything from bass poles to surf poles. Rarely did we ever bring one up. These things are so big we gave them a new name. 'LINESNAPPERS!!! I've never seen a couple of people laugh so hard fishing. A cooler full of beer and a pound or three of bacon and we would fish for hours.

      I live in Nebraska and there are tons of them, all kinds of species and will hit damn near anything. We have caught those Big head carp on everything from Silver spoons, jigs, crawlers, livers, and even grass. If you're fishing from the bank, invest in a $2 rod holder.

    • @nebraskatpp
      @nebraskatpp 6 років тому

      You are so right Kevin... They are fierce, FIERCE FIGHTERS. If caught in swift water rivers, are excellent table fare. My grandma and grandpa started a restaurant (and bar during prohibition) on and over the Missouri River called "Camp Rulo"... and Carp was a main fare there, along with the other river fish. My favorite fish to eat out of the Missouri is 'Drum'. They are a bitch to clean, and do not yield much meat, but they are great.
      Sorry, but the Big Head Carp are nothing but a nuisance and they are terribly ugly.
      Carp are one of the best to get kids to learn how to hook, fight and land fish on. Their eyes bug out when they feel a bigger fish rip the drag on a long run... If kids promise to endure the trip, and you surprise them at an active Carp location.... they'll want to stay and come back at dawn the next day....
      If you all remember, I think it was field and stream magazine that informed the outdoor world that if you take kids fishing and hunting and have fun before they turn 12, that they will continue to keep it in the rest of their lives.... and pass it on to their children too..... those of us who made our living in the hunting, fishing, boating and camping world....love and thank you for doing this. The great outdoors thanks you too I'm sure. I doubt they thank the liberal tree huggers though because those weirdos don't understand how to help the great outdoors anyway.

  • @patlowney2834
    @patlowney2834 7 років тому

    This reminds me of my days of commercial fishing. I did that for 25 years. We're harvesting grass shrimp just supply bait shops all around the SF Bay Area. Well we're heading up to haul out with the boat to do or maintenance we stopped in San Francisco at a fuel dock. The guy running the doc says you guys got any fish in there. And we didn't but I said to him we got a couple trouser trouts. He said what's that. I said put your hand in your pocket and he busted up laughing. If you want to get free beer. Tell folks that you will tell them where to get the big fish for a case of beer. When they come back with a case of beer. Take your thumb and your finger and grab your lip and say this is where you catch them.

    I love catching carp, the fastest longest running fish alive. I accidentally caught a 25 pound grass carp from my pond, and it was the hardest fight I ever had. Even a 1 foot grass carp will put up a better fight than a river smallmouth the same size.

    The best recipe for carp!
    First you build a campfire, then find yourself a big piece of wood.
    Nail the carp to the wood, and throw it into the open flames.
    When all the juices of the carp bubble out onto the wood, then you know it's ready.
    You throw away the carpet and eat the wood! LOL

    I don’t know about bighead or silver carp, but common carp (out of reasonably clean water) are perfectly good to eat, even delicious. There is a prejudice/misconception in some circles that carp are either inedible or bad tasting. I’d guess that most who claim this have never tried it.

      +matt cloo You are right and they've caused a huge amount of damage to our native species and continue to do so. Despite large amounts of resources put into wiping it out , it continues to spread and increase it's range.
      It might be "fun" to some but it's a major disaster to America's rivers?

Using an Abu 6500C3 with 20lb mono, he would've absolutely spooled me, I had to use my thumb to stop the spool as I was down to just a few wraps of line left. Couldnt believe I brought it in. Definitely the hardest fight Ive ever had. In the Kansas(aka Kaw) River in Lawrence, KS.
