Glad to see you released the fish. It was a Grass Carp, and people buy them to keep algae and other unwanted grasses from overtaking their ponds. It's "official" name is White Amur...if I spelled it correctly
Yea grass carp don't really bite. At least I haven't found anything they bite on. Bout the Only way you get one is if you snag it. But regular carp yea dough balls corn and nightcrawler
Yes it's a carp but rare to catch on artificial lure. Yes they get bigger but still.cool to catch. Glad you released because they help to keep algae under control. This pond had an aerator and copper sulfate added to help reduce excess vegetation. Doing these will allow good environment for game fish to prosper.
BIG Grass Carp. They are usually put in ponds and lakes to control aquatic algae and weeds. Not good eating as they have little flavor and the meat is very oily. They are fun to catch on ultralight tackle and readily hit worms, corn or small jig flies.
Hey man nice video. Pond hoppin in Allen is great. Caught several large catfish and bass out of public fishing ponds. All catch and release . That's what these ponds are for. Allen is a great little fishing spot here in N Texas. The parks department keep the ponds stocked and keep the ponds nice.
I had a nice sized pond about a 5 minute walk from my house that was loaded with carp. They may be a trash fish but they put up one hell of a fight and are fun to fish for.
You are very right I'll catch a carp in a minute man , I catch and release mossy of the time any way so what difference does it make right , I would rather catch something big lol
I have seen carp easily twice that size in Evan's quarry. Got towed all over the lake one day by one that had scales on it's side 3-4 inches across fishing from a kayak that must have weighed 60 lbs and that is a conservative estimate.
Grass carp are good to keep in ponds and lakes. They feed on the weeds to help you when you're fishing so the lure doesn't get dangled in the stuff, so I hope you put it back in the water.
Awesome catch dude, don’t know why you caught so much hate on this video. I’m subbing just cuz of the haters. You should do a video reading all the funny comments. F the haters dawg
Nice catch. You in my opinion did well landing the fish, even if it is a carp. It's funny to see how miserable people are from the comments they make just from you just wanting to record your fishing excursion.
Carp, i use to catch them that size in ponds along the Mississippi River when i was a kid. First one was Fried like catfish -- was like eating cotton.. LOL
It's a Chinese carp. They are used to reduce the vegetation on the bottom of lakes and ponds so that the plants can grow and produce oxygen. After the carp's have done their job, a fish killing chemical is put in the water to kill them (and other fish) and then remove them. They are way to bony to eat, don't taste very well and are more of a utility fish than anything else. I used to work with the county and we would do this 1 - 2 times a year in lakes around the area. What was bad was the stink from the rotting fish, and we had to remove the carcasses. YUCK!!
Kenny Bowers that’s bad ass man there’s big carp but never really fished for them this was just a lil man made pond but trinity river here in Tx holds monster fish like the far which I like to go far we’ll be posting new vids on that when the time gets right for them
They are fighting little suckers huh, we have pay lakes where you pay 17 bucks for 24 hours that people camp at been going there all my life. On the weekends we have tournaments for the biggest carp some of the pots and get up to eight hundred bucks. The main ponds about as big as the one you're fishing in here there's 60 and 70 lb blue cat and Flathead in it as well if you're on Facebook look up Bob's fishing lake Savannah Missouri you'll be able to see some pictures.
Great way to catch that fish! You didn't panic, you kept firm pressure on the fish, & you let him gradually wear himself down. That's the way it's done! 2 questions: 1-How long was he? 2-How much did he weigh? (Just curious). Have a great day, and keep on fishin'!!!
Wow very nice . Something very similar happened to me . Were I live it’s about 60 miles away from one of biggest theme parks . Well there’s a small pond in the theme parks parking lot it looks to be about 1/3 to 1/4 that the size of the pond in your video it’s very small . Well I pulled out a 10 lb catfish and a 7 lb large mouth bass. On ultra light rod and 6 lb line.
If you haven't had carp for dinner you may not know that carp are the main fish used to make Gefilta fish. You'll find that in jars in the Kosher section of most grocery stores. It's really pretty good and Jewish people eat this on high holidays. Some of the brands are really good, others no so much. Mrs. Adlers, Old Jerusalem, Rockaech , try it you may be surprised how good it is.
I used to have about 20 grass carp in a pond of mine and I swear these things got absolutely massive. They would only eat bread. These things were close to if not over 100lbs. Unfortunately, we had a really dry, hot ass summer here in central Georgia that year and my damn pond turned over and killed every one of them at once. They were as wide as me and nearly as fat. That was the worst stink imaginable. I would never advise anyone to put carp in a bass pond because they prevent the bass from spawning properly by constantly rooting around the bank like damn pigs. Plus, they will sit really still out in the pond and make a gigantic disturbance when spooked ruining your fishing stealthiness and alerting every other fish in a hundred yard radius. I will never put them in any pond of mine again.
I love catching Carp! They really put up a fight! I actually snagged in the belly a carp that size once! Weird way of catching it but wow it was a fighter!
fish arent made of paper will break into a dozen pieces if you do that,they still live to swim another day. its not like he's stabbing it with a knife dumb fuck!
Glad to see you released the fish. It was a Grass Carp, and people buy them to keep algae and other unwanted grasses from overtaking their ponds. It's "official" name is White Amur...if I spelled it correctly
Wow! Awesome job! Thanks for putting it back.. It's all in the fun of it!!
I've cought some big carp out of golf course ponds, but never a grass carp. I've cought regular carp using corn or dough balls. Glad you had fun.
Yea grass carp don't really bite. At least I haven't found anything they bite on. Bout the Only way you get one is if you snag it. But regular carp yea dough balls corn and nightcrawler
Huge carp. I've seen some monsters. That was some good fishing. Especially the release. Great job
I'm very glad to see you put it back in the water alive. nice catch.
Tim Schutte yup catch me release for me I’m it for the fun of it
Carp keep the pond clean, so I'm glad you put it back in the water THANKS 🏁
I’m learning so much about fishing from the comments alone. Cool stuff
Nice! Thank you for sharing!💜
Nice fish and glad to see you put it back in the water to get even bigger and hopefully breed and get more fish to catch 😊

thank you for returning him back to the pond
NICE!!!!!! That was a monster. Great job landing it.
I got "carp"al tunnel syndrome just watching him reel it in ...
Nice video carp are a blast to catch on light tackle and are a very intelligent fish as well cool :)
Awesome catch! Having some trout I caught over the weekend for dinner. Yum. Good luck fishing!
It’s cool that you put it back to see how big it can really get..!! Awesome brother!! 👍
Nice grass carp, man. Used to catch them all the time in Louisiana. Insane fighters on light tackle and 10lb braided line
My son & I loved watching this. Great!
charliejdk thx man means a lot

Jeffrey Harris thx man
nice..fish..! and thank you for letting the fish live..that fish will keep that pond clean for many more years..I think that was of the carp family.

TC's Outdoors yeah there’s lots of ponds in Allen McKinney area same here catch and release
Love the excitement of the carp catch!! We’ve caught’em like that one day back in the 80’s. I also was literally infested with ticks that day also..
You are very strong and powerful to hold out as long as you did. Good fishing.
The managers of the pond most likely put the carp in the pond to keep the bottom clean.
I think you've fought this in the past,think you could of dragged it all around the pond one more time.
Peter Will Dr
😂😂😂😂 god damn.... I was thinking -where is he GOING??? 😂😂😂
Nice catch,it's the season right now in Vermont, cat fish and carp baby,oh,and bud and beer too, fish on gentlemen
Big Ass Carp even bigger in person ! Badass catch bro!
Nice carp, we may call em trash fish but they are consider the #1 sports fish in most country's , still a nice video
Fishin N Stuff hey man thx means a lot and I’ll sub back right lines bent rods fish on 😎
I had a nice sized pond about a 5 minute walk from my house that was loaded with carp. They may be a trash fish but they put up one hell of a fight and are fun to fish for.
You are very right I'll catch a carp in a minute man , I catch and release mossy of the time any way so what difference does it make right , I would rather catch something big lol
IFishin N Stuff i
Fishin N Stuff m
Hmm
Dang man nice Carp👍. Great catch
That's a grass carp. They're stocked in small ponds and lakes to help control weeds.
Grass Carp, to eat the algae. It looked like he snagged it on a spinner bait.
I have seen carp easily twice that size in Evan's quarry. Got towed all over the lake one day by one that had scales on it's side 3-4 inches across fishing from a kayak that must have weighed 60 lbs and that is a conservative estimate.
Nice catch! But most of all nice catch and release. Right On!
Never Seen someone so excited to catch a carp lol
LOL...made me think of when I released a 40+ lb catfish in one of the Golf course pond's...😀😀😀 Nice Grass Carp... Lol Awesome
Btw they get Alot bigger than that...ALOT BIGGER 😀 That's good stuff man
that's like fishing in a bath tub
Grass carp are good to keep in ponds and lakes. They feed on the weeds to help you when you're fishing so the lure doesn't get dangled in the stuff, so I hope you put it back in the water.
Nice! Congrats
I've never heard someone say fam so many times
IVARR jesus who hurt you man
Awesome catch dude, don’t know why you caught so much hate on this video. I’m subbing just cuz of the haters. You should do a video reading all the funny comments. F the haters dawg
Daniel Bowens lol thx man yeah I seen that fuck it man I’ll still do what I do and catch fish 😎👍
Monster carp. Lots of fun to catch.. not to eat though. Hope somebody else gets to catch it. Those things just keep growing. Nice video!
Yeah great catch...cool video 👍
Good job, & thanks for releasing him!
OceanBlueLady no one wants to eat that fish 😂
Kudos for releasing it back into the pond! Excellent catch though!!
Every one out here hating but they can't even catch a 5 lb bass
Excellent.......nice to see you returned it to fight another day....

Robby Fleming thx bro
Great catch and good on you for the release . Huge Fan . L
Nice catch. You in my opinion did well landing the fish, even if it is a carp. It's funny to see how miserable people are from the comments they make just from you just wanting to record your fishing excursion.
Carp, i use to catch them that size in ponds along the Mississippi River when i was a kid. First one was Fried like catfish -- was like eating cotton.. LOL
Dang! what a catch!!
Grass carp snagged in the side of the head....... yeah awesome......
what bait did u use?
Human:. Look at that big fish!
Fish: *look at those oxygen Bois*
Used to catch a ton of them at Bullard's Bar using just a single piece of corn.
Panther Martin lures are good for bass , bluegill , catfish , carp pretty much anything really
Looked very exciting, and you actually handled that fish a lot better than many of the fishing hero's on the tube.
Miles S thx man means a lot
Grass carp that is a beast of a grass carp aswell not seen one that long befor
Cool. Never saw one take a lure before.
Nice work, fam!
Catch and release, well done .
How does a video like this get so many dislikes 🙄. People be jumping on here expecting Oscar performances. Raw footage here 👍
Oh my God! It's Carpzilla!
Sick video bro! That's the biggest carp I've ever seen. Way cool u captured that & did it on an artificial! That's not easy to do! I subbed u man.

Chad Rowland he snagged the fish he did not need any bait

Lol, here in Mo we catch 50 lbs Carp allday. Very fun fish to catch.

Carp don't usually attack lures. One heck of a fish fight.
He's a hero 4 putting it back in the pond!
were you casting over this other guy's line to your left? because it sure looks like you were.
A carp. Really a monster. More like Nonster. Bottom feeders, that eat anything and grow fast. I've never seen a small carp.
Great way to catch that fish! You didn't panic, you kept firm pressure on the fish, & you let him gradually wear himself down. That's the way it's done! 2 questions: 1-How long was he? 2-How much did he weigh? (Just curious). Have a great day, and keep on fishin'!!!
It's a carp. Not a tarpon.
1 long 2 alot
Congrats bro nice catch!!!👍
Miguel Hernandez thx bro
Wow very nice . Something very similar happened to me . Were I live it’s about 60 miles away from one of biggest theme parks . Well there’s a small pond in the theme parks parking lot it looks to be about 1/3 to 1/4 that the size of the pond in your video it’s very small .

You never know what lurks benith the surface of the pond 🐙🐋🦈🐳🐬🐟🐡🐠🦐🦑🐉🦀
Nice fish-handling skills.
Wonder how happy the owners of the pond are your catching their triploid grass carp lol
you got a like because you put it back in the pond
babyrazor wow how generous of you
not at all I'm sure any other Buddhist would have done the same
Looks like a catch and release pond. Not sure, but I fish one similar. Plus it is a carp, not very good for eating.
babyrazor 김
Jared Young 김종원
I love the fight these big carps give
Wonder how much that bad boy weighed? And nice job on the catch and release.
WOW Cool catch 😊
Nice job, Bro!
Patrick McGhee thx man

Nice Carp! What did you catch it on? Where I'm from we can only catch them with bread. Beautiful blue pond that is there too. Have fun!
Sherri Sch sometimes they hit rooster tails man but I think just cause there curious but yeah bread and corn is choice and thx man
I just use white bread mostly. Even corn is not as good if you want consistent catches of big fish. Catch a lot of smaller fish on corn.
Sherri Sch Try canned corn or store bought vanilla dough ball and pour red pop on it while working it on your hook .
Gene Thanks for the bait tip. I appreciate it.
What rig are you using? I'm assuming a spinning combo, but, what line and what what power rod? (E.g. Medium, Medium Heavy action, etc)
That's a monster carp👍😃
Thats an awesome carp
Definitely would not eat anything from such a pristine environment lol ,,,now if that was a tarpon you would have had some REAL action . Tight lines !
I used to have about 20 grass carp in a pond of mine and I swear these things got absolutely massive. They would only eat bread. These things were close to if not over 100lbs.

Was expecting a Bass.We have carps 3 times that size here in the New River.
I love catching Carp! They really put up a fight! I actually snagged in the belly a carp that size once! Weird way of catching it but wow it was a fighter!
OMG ARE YOU IN WISCONSIN? THAT LOOKS LIKE THE POND WE HAVE HERE IN WISCONSIN!
Dark DeadWolf It’s in Texas
Nice size carp what was the weight of it?
Nice snag!
Nice dude. Nice!
I caught one that size with a brem buster.
"We're gonna need a bigger boat!"
Jeffrey Harris "Smile, you son of a bitch"
Great movie!
These guys certainly aint fishermen the way they messed that poor fish around.
Michael Hackett it’s called fighting a fish and with 8lb line that’s pretty damn good skills I got
You should try barbel on the river that would be an arm puller
PETA supporter found
fish arent made of paper will break into a dozen pieces if you do that,they still live to swim another day. its not like he's stabbing it with a knife dumb fuck!
where i fish, shoot a fish if we forget our gaff
I really should be no surprised finding giant fish in a pond. Wheres the damn predator???
That was fun. Just because you're not going to eat it doesn't make the fishing & catching fun. Folks need to chill the hell out.
That fish had to be the KING of the pond!
