Hooked up to my very first grass carp i have ever caught on live stream today, not only was it my first one it was a monster going nearly 50 pounds in weight. i fished this spot 3 times now in the last week chumming and waiting patiently for the monster carp i knew where there to finally bite. this grass carp or greater amur carp ate a home made dough bait and was attracted into the area using boiled deer corn, bird seed, and several other ingredients. i didn't feel properly educated on the subject enough to decide if this invasive species should or should not be in the waters it calls home so i released it, either decision i made would have upset someone more than likely. that grass carp gave me an amazing gift letting me catch him so i went ahead and returned the favor and let him go. I'm not hungry and i dont kill animals when I'm not hungry. i have tried to catch grass carp on and off for nearly 20 years and finally managed to make it happen, carp fishing is a strange addiction..i want to go back right now...

This video shows how i went about making home made dough baits for common carp and grass carp and managed to catch my very first grass carp after many years of trying. i chummed boiled deer corn and bird seed with several other ingredients for three different trips and fished sweet corn and my home made dough baits and was finally rewarded with a 50 pound grass carp caught on Town lake Austin Tx. going to keep fishing for these interesting asian carp i find them to be pretty neat and a real challenge to target, especially from my little 10 foot Malibu Mini-X kayak
