Carp Fishing: Earlier this week, a Game & Fish reader shared a photo on our Camera Corner page showing a large carp he caught on ultralight gear in New Jersey.

Kenny Parkerson wrote the 12-pound carp put up a great fight, and then interjected, "not much people fish for them, but they should."
Game & Fish interjected, "Bet there are lots of online carp fishing videos out there that could generate interest."

With the help of our other family members in the Outdoors Sportsman Group , we put together the video log of carp fishing videos that may show you something you've never seen before, or give you a reason to learn more about catching these brutish fighters.
Seize the day, carp anglers, and enjoy!
