Carp has been considered a favorite fish in China for many years. One member of the carp family is the Koi, sought after for its strength and beautiful color. They seem like gentle fish to catch, but getting caught and disturbed by the rod will give you the fight of your life.
You can see carp rolling around the edges of rivers, ponds and lakes in the spring. There will be space, and they will not be in another. It is not unusual to see a 20 pound plus pick up on a bank of fat and rolling. Those are the big ones you want to go for. They are giants that will fight like no other fish. No, they will go and fight to stay there. Even 10 pound plus wrists are common and can be a real challenge to land.
Heavy rod and will be disturbed with fishing these giants with 15 pound test line. The pole is also a heavy action so that lighter outfits are broken again and again. Need a more serious action pole that can take a lot of action. These are the largest freshwater lures found in North America and are well worth the effort.
There are many different hooks to catch these bigones. You can’t go wrong with night crawlers. You can also use flour balls and you will catch a lot, although those caught with mass balls tend to be quite a bit smaller than those caught on night crawlers. So worms should be your first bait. Use a sliding rig for best results, a sliding rig above the bait with a connecting ring between the bait and the sinker. Use this particular fishing rig bottom where you are most likely to catch.
Fish mouth of rivers, balls, rivers and even ponds in streams are good spots for these fish. If you want to hit rich with big ones, then fish high structures, such as rocks, trees, plants, points, sand bars, etc. In the summer a good spot for catching big carp is under the sandy water near the bar. 15 to 20 feet down. It is easy to hook a 20 to 30 pound fish that will keep you busy for a long time. .
I don’t recommend that you eat these large ones, just take them and pay. They have a strong flavor and are tough for this size. You can always come back to the fight on another day and around for a long time, they will be there when you come back.
If you want a meal, just keep 10 pounds and under the fish as they taste better, are easier to clean, and much safer to eat.
If you want a fun and exciting day fishing, go fishing! Once you do, you will always be hooked on fishing.
