- Ended up catching Some Panfish (Redear Sunfish) at the lake. The Carp weren't biting but I will catch one someday. Also gotta do some more research on the eggplant.

I live in Australia and the carp is absolutely despised for it being a noxious pest, but ppl refuse to eat them. I have a bunch or recipes now that I find make them taste delicious. I appreciate you making videos about less desirable fish as it’s mostly just ppls perception and not the fish itself.
We call the fish with the red line on the ear either a Red Ear, or ShellCracker.
I am a carp fisherman... Always chum the water with bread or/and corn before u even start fishing for carp... Then cast out wen u see them starting to feed
.. you'll see tail wagging n bubbles where their feeding... Cast at least 8 feet from where their feeding because carps easily get spooked and they'll eventually come feed where u casting to... And last but not least make sure the hook is hidden real good they get spooked if they see or feel a hook at all... These fish are really smart and hard to fish but fun...
Got addicted to your videos keep it up! I’m from NJ but live out here in Tokyo working as a sous chef.
My friend has a Himalayan cat. I think that's what it is because every time I'm at his house, "him a layin" here or "him a layin" over there.
Thanks for takin us along.
I always thought this guy was crazy for eating right through the rib bones on small fish …tried it today and it was BOMB
On eggplant it's best to slice it into rounds,salt it well and place between paper towels and a weight on top to draw out the biter moisture inside. After around a half hour take them and rinse off the salt. Dry well then you can either just fry them as they are or dredge them in seasoned flour and fry. Done right. Eggplant is very delicious. Also the eggplant that is the same thickness from top to bottom are the male eggplant. The ones that are more bulbus looking are the females. Female eggplant have more seeds and are usually more bitter than the male eggplant.
Or just bake with some mozzarella and parmesan and a good marinara sauce for super easy eggplant parmisan
@@Jeremy_936 I agree. I've fried eggplant many times, but like David said you absolutely MUST draw out some of the moisture. I now prefer to season with a little salt/pepper/cajun shake, some cheese and bake in the oven. Marinara sauce is certainly a nice twist.
All eggplant actually come from female flowers, there is no sex difference.
I live in Aus, catching carp is super easy BTW. But you must really make sure your rod is secure, I don't know if you caught carp before, but they pull incredibly hard. Of all the fish I have caught in Australia, the carp pulls the hardest, so not only do you have to make sure your rod is secure, make sure your drag is set so it can pull line out when it's pulling really hard, otherwise the carp will break your line or your rod. I suggest using sweet corn also, this bait works the best for carp, they are attracted to it like iron to a magnet. If there are carp at a location, you should be able to see them in the water, they commonly swim near the surface and make large splash noises. And so you should make sure there are truly carp in a spot before bothering to try to spend your time catching them, since obviously in some locations there won't be carp, or maybe other people have fished the spot out, since the spot you were in had other people there. The best fishing is always done where people don't commonly go fishing, because the fish population have built up and don't have other fishermen taking them.
When I cut into the carp I catch, the meat colour is interesting, it's a slight orange colour, it reminds me of the salmon in the supermarket that looks orange. The carp meat has a good amount of fat in it. Most other fish species I cut into, the meat is a very faint blue/green colour, which then turns to pure white after cooking, this appears to be the common meat colour of low fat fish species, these species lacking fat will usually need a deep frying cooking method to reintroduce some fat, at which point they are lovely eating. Where as the more naturally fatty carp flesh can literally be cooked straight up in a pan with some salt and it's great, since it's higher fat content essentially is seasoning it naturally.
You are lucky BTW that you have all these species you can catch. I catch so many carp that I don't think it's special, I would enjoy having more species to catch like these Sunfish you catch. I enjoy the Redfin perch though, at least that was introduced and it's a common fish here now in the rivers, it's a great one that probably tastes similar to those Sunfish, but it's larger of course than those. They don't have Redfin in the USA, however you probably have a dozen fish species in your state to catch from, so you don't need the Redfin.
Before the introduction of Redfin, Carp and Trout, Australia naturally doesn't have many fish species to choose from in freshwater, only the Murray Cod, Silver Perch, Golden Perch, One catfish, Trout cod, blackfish and that's nearly it. The only silver lining to this, is that at least the Golden perch is one hell of an amazing eating fish.
Redear sunfish, which we called shellcrackers, were a big prize where I grew up in PA, probably just because they were kind of rare and could get bigger than bluegills. We thought they were the best eating fish that you could catch. Maybe that was just because we were kids and had given shellcrackers extra status just because we had to work hard to catch them.
I grew up on the Altamaha in South Georgia. They re a real prize there too! Thick meated, bout like your hand, and good fighters for there size.
@@ZosKia523 we have good ones here in Cali at my local lake we're talking 8-11"
Those red ears are good eating. I usually take the heads off (I save them for catfish bait) and smoke them or fry them. I'll also add this bit of advice, if you are fishing for carp, the most important piece of gear you will need to have is a rod holder. The number of fishing poles I've seen do cartwheels into the lake or the rivers when one of those old rust buckets hit and someone didn't have a rod holder.
Whatever "it" is...you have it. Keep doing videos and being genuine. You'll do well.
Make sure to physically secure your rod to the bank some how!
A good carp will pull your rod right in and you'll lose your rod.
Also, loosen your drag to a little under a half pound while waiting. Once the carp takes it, tighten it up just enough so that when the carp is swimming normally it won't peel drag and you can pull it in, but not so much that when it dashes the drag release.
Remember to always keep the bend in your rod, and use the pumping method to bring the carp in. Pull it in by lifting your rod, then drop the tip to around 45 degrees and reel in the slack while dropping the tip.
I actually just lighten up on the pull enough to be able to reel in without peeling drag (this way you keep the bend in your rod all the time with constant tension on the line), then when my rod is about half way down I stop reeling and pull harder again.
I just set my drag very loose, and tighten if needed
Hey bro, try using instant rice or better yet use grits. You can add kool-aid or jello, or not. You can try a little soda to moisten, or use your corn. Hope you try these out. Nothing like the simplicity of fishing. Thanks for showing folks that you don't need a boat and a thousand lures to have a great time. Tight lines to Ya 🎣!!!
Mark get some crickets with small cork ,small split shot weight with a number 8 long shaft bream hook. You will see a lot more action, plus catfish and bass like crickets. You can also go to pet smart and buy those cheap goldfish. You will need a minnow bucket with an aerator to keep goldfish alive. Use a golf ball size bobber, with a number 4 gold hook. No weight. Just throw out and let goldfish swim around, big bass will kill it. Can’t resist the goldfish. I buy the 32 cent each goldfish. The 16 cent ones are usually too small. Try that I’m sure you will have much more action. Love your videos and the Japanese.
For carp, I recommend buying the Walmart cheap 50 cent corn and chumming the water like throwing handfuls of corn out there before casting your line just so you have very high chances of them biting
This works for me
Bro I love your videos fam, you seem like a genuine guy keep it up.
Very nice video flick. Love fried sunfish, blue gills, and all small fish. Best part is the crispy tails! As per the eggplant. Dredge in flour seasoned with salt and pepper, then eggwash, and then fry. Eat that as is or top with marinara and shaved parm. Either way you're gonna' love it!
As a MAN, living in the SOUTH, how can you say, with a straight face, that SOMETIMES fried fish tastes better than ...uggggh... steamed fish? Hand over your "Southern Man" card, right now! I mean it. Right now! LOL Love your videos and YT has plenty of guys that can teach you how to catch carp if you seek them out, Grasshopper.
Pro tip for better tasting fish, either put them on a stringer by your spot or Bleed and ice right after catching. Whenever fish get stressed they release toxins into the meat, so the more stressful the lead up to the death the worse and faster your fish meat spoils.
Also with the eggplant, id slice it like that if I was going to grill it. The second best way to prep is to slice thin and fry w/ breadcrumbs
If you are in New England come fish and cook in my Canoe!
Try putting carpenter in tinfoil.....add half jar of mayo and lemon slices salt n pepper. The mayo will yank the gamey flavor out and you'll have a sweet meal. When i lived on Nantucket we did this method on the grill for bluefish.
gotta eat that fried tail fin my dude...you left the best part
whenever I see you cook up these fish it makes me so hungry😂
Bluegill was my favorite fish to catch as a kid. I remember coming home from school for some limes and tortillas than heading straight to the pond outback in the woods. Had me the freshest catch and cooks lol
So happy you was honest about the eggplant 😂 because when you started cooking it in my head I’m like “ain’t no way” 😂
These videos growing on me. Dope vibe and the Nihon love is cool too.
Congrats on the growth of the channel excited to support a fellow ATLien
If you want to attract carp, you can "chum" the water with grass clippings. Seriously. You may not be able to do this in a private pond, but in a creek or stream take a garbage bag full of grass clippings and empty the clippings into the water. Common grass carp will arrive soon and come to the top, sucking the grass down. Great time to catch 'em. We used to bowfish them that way. Bowfishing is a BLAST!
My guy you the best, hella good fisherman and can cook your catch hella good, ladies this a man you need.
Nice to see a younger person fishing, nice videos!
Eh tip for eggplant is to use butter and a tiny bit of oil to prevent burning and season with salt, if you use too little you can always re-season after cooking
3 things mark
1. You should try and keep you lil pole in your hand mor often
2. Idk if this would help you but with pan fish use small hooks and only use enough worm to cover the hook when you put extra worm on there you will miss alot of fish and save more worms
3.on your carp rig put the hook with the corn on the bait ball … after you make the bait ball just smash the hook on the bait ball ( I hope that makes sense)
And please go hard and get a carp we want to see you catch a carp and cook it up the mark way thank u keep up the good work I hope u read this and switch up your drink that’s one of my favorite parts about your video and it been water the pass few vids you should switch the drink up every time
Best panfish around.
I lost two poles last summer to carp by laying my rod down like you did. I learned the hard way to either hold it or get or make a rod holder.😉
I like that you show your rig setup
Doughballs with walnut extract. As bait. Cut the carp in 2 inch thick slices. Then use a pressure cooker. Taste just like salmon
When it comes to fried fish....put them chop sticks up and dig in. GREAT job man
Entertainment at its finest
Carp love to eat cicadas. You have the perfect bait.
Hey from the UK! Been watching your videos the past week, enjoying your videos man keep it up. Nostalgic isn't the word for some of the sound effects 😂 and I'm sure I've learned like 5 Japanese words inadvertently!!
when you're worm fishing you should just hold the rod; you don't need to put it down with a bell on it. set the hook right when you feel a decent bite you shouldn't wait for a big pull. that's what i do and i rarely miss fish. keep up the good work and tight lines bro!!!!🎣🤙
always excited to watch these
For Carp leave your bait in the water for alot longer than you would any other fish. Carp like to roam all around on the bottom, so it can be a while before the Carp find your bait. Maybe even hours.
I'm right there with you having trouble with carp. I've only really caught them by surprise. Plus you taught me today what the drop shot rig was, even though I've already used it to catch fish before without realizing it, ha. I just thought it was called a bottom rig.
Carp or Sucker go for Huge NightCrawlers as well. Put a whole worm on a hook. try it.
This has worked for me only once. All the other worm loving fish grab it first
Rough days. “It’s called fishing, for a reason”
This channel is legit.
Your alright. Best way. Take a can of corn. Toss several handfuls out in the water. Use a small hook and string the corn on it covering it. The corn chum will attracted them. You should catch far more than you can eat. Use a small bobber and a much smaller weight.
Correction. Use no bobber. Let it rest on the bottom near the corn chum.
Subscribed for the Japanese aesthetic 👍🏾
The tail is the best part!!!!
I love how simple you keep everything ❤️🙏🏻
LESSSGOOO u moved from 15.3k to 15.6k , growin!
I ran into your channel by mistake but I am so glad I did. I’m from the Pacific Northwest in the greater Seattle metro. So don’t really fish for many warmwater fish as it’s not was is popular but just might have to start. If you ever decide to do some traveling catch and cooks let me know and we could get you out to fish for salmon
I got some tricks for ya for carp, I catch em on the regular. My usual routine is 2 oz weight to lock my bait to the bottom, strong swivel, 30 lb braid leader to a size 4 octopus or similar style hook. Peg as much white shoepeg corn through the side on the hook as you can while leaving the actual point exposed. Cast into the area where you see fish passing through frequently, and chum with a whole can of corn. Usually produces great results. If this method works for you I'm more than happy to have spread the word.
Must not have a lot of weeds there? I had to get heavy gauge carp hooks for my area because the carp would swim through the weeds and bunch the weeds up on the weight or method feeder. This would give high enough resistance for the carp to pull against to straighten the hook and get away.
I also had to start tying my weights and feeders on using lighter line so when they would detach before causing too much resistance.
I'm fishing in the weeds. Like directly in the lily pads. I go with the 4 octopus because they set themselves fairly well before getting into the throat of the fish. I use the same ones I use to drift eggs for salmon, owner cutting points. When the fish fights and tries to pull away from you the hook tends to turn around and set at a second point in the top of their lip, keeping them fully locked. I actually lose more fish on the heavy gauge hooks to just tearing straight out of their lips.
"It's 90 degrees in Klondike."
Whoever named that place had a very twisted sense of humor.
bro dont ever change ur content when u get popping this is perfect!!!
A Wendys fast food restaurant french fry. That's what I used to catch the one and only carp I ever caught in my life. And it was in Georgia.
When you make it down to Los Angeles go to the LA river and they have giant carp in the river. That would be a dope catch and cook with the grill and LA carp.
I’m saving these videos for next time I smoke straight masterpiece
casey got the jorts on from the 90s . somebody get they man
Gills, sunfish delicious. We scaled and gutted them when I was small. No meat loss is the best part. I do like filleting them though.
Mark i seen a lot of ur videos that u have a problem of catching bass, I recommend that u use live minnows for catching them or u can catch bass with creek chubs
Find a good creek coming into a river! I'd live to see you go after warmouth and pickerel!!
Yesssss a catch and cook!
For carp, try balling up some bread or use hotdogs or chicken liver. Corn is too small and doesnt stay on the hook well. Look up a sliding rig, also called fish finder rig or carolina rig.
Wen he ate the fried sunfish thou... Lol... I love fried fish very tasty 😋
I did this today also. no luck wit the crossbow and carp but i got some pan fish that made me happy still :D
So it would help to throw corn a few days before you fish. This trains the carp. Then use jello and breadcrumbs with your method bait. The jello crumbs help bind the oatmeal.
Love frying up sunfish. Think I'm gonna have to do this soon now lol
There's a video of a Russian guy fishing for carp. No English, either spoken or subtitles, but, you can still figure out what's going on.
He has special carp bait (the labels on his stuff were multi-lingual), which he'd make into a paste, and then stick into a small basket (for lack of a better word) on his line. The line goes through it, and the bait slowly dissolves, so it's kind of a chum basket, a cylinder maybe one by two inches, with an open frame, and the line coming out the middle. If I recall correctly, he'd jam the hooks into the back (open) rend of the basket.
I've caught many _huge_ carp using frozen corn kernels, two or three on a hook, with some split shot of a small weight.
Nice fishing and fish looked God God bless brother
Can’t wait for you to catch that carp literally so glad I found your channel I haven’t caught my first carp yet either or eaten one
Awesome video, dude! Started watching your videos after I got the suggestions in my recommended and now I’m loving them!
Je vois la vie en nature!
Bro I just stumbled on your videos man love from Brooklyn ny
Best bait for carp is corn or my favorite is wheaties made into a dough ball mash them up add enough water to form doe cast and hold on
New subscriber here. Love the videos! You and I have the same desk, it freaked me out when I saw it! Had this thing for like 20 years. Cheers!
making me hungry. deep fried fish is my favorite way to cook pan fish. eat bones and all
I catch a lot of carp with a regular bobber (pokeball style) and a small hook with only corn on it like 10 kernels per hook, so it just looks like a corny letter 'J'
I'm assuming you leave a good portion of the hook point corn free?
That type of bait is about consistency. Panko, corn and jello mix work wonders.
You might want to look up "Ikejime" which is a method for killing the fishing that preserves the meat better than bonking. Btw loving your channel recently! So much great content
Should try making tortang talong with the eggplant; it's basically Filipino eggplant omelette.
Those red ear looked delicious. Nice work Mark.
the way u just picked up that cicada lmao i could never, love ur fishing vids tho :) dope shit
Put the fish guts in a ziplock bag and throw it in the freezer it makes great catfish bait for your next fishing trip. 👍🎣 🐟
Add garlic powder to the guts if you want it makes them more potent in the water for catfish.
A good bait i like to use for carp ripped up bread with peanut butter and corn meal all mixed
The catch and cook vids are for sure my favorite please do them as much as u can lol
feel your pain with carp fishing
The cicada you had in your hand would have been great bait. Fish love bugs.
For people who hate on carps, it’s cause they don’t know how to cook.
Truth be told, people will always hate on things that they don’t understand.
That and most people just repeat what they hear and haven't actually eaten carp
@@j2d4oi
Or prepared for them by someone who doesn’t know how to properly cook the fish.
Also when fishing for carp check your lines at least every hour, just to make sure it still have bait and isn't fouled up.
Check how many hooks you can have on a line, go back to your river & fish with three tiny hooks with tiny bits of worm strung after it. Takes a couple hours but hey will comr
You should take a trip up north to the Snoqualmie river and fish, the salmon are giants!
When youre using bread use a treble hook
But only use a treble hook if you're catching food, not releasing 👍
Caught a ton of carp over the years with just worms
Great vid! Your channel is great!
I was impressed with your innovation in the carp setup. Corn and oats are always good. In the UK we use a cage feeder or method feeder to put our ground bait on. Carp are very wily and will be sometimes suspicious of bait if they feel the hooks in them. Put a bit of corn on a hair rig will help. Also have a look at boilies, people make then for carp fishing and can hold quite well if you don't want to use corn. Enjoying your videos so far subscribed👍
Try a dropshit rig size 4-6 hook and remove the bell. always catches big gills with that set up
Yo Mark is cheffin it up!
Lets goooooooo!
Sugoi!
Try adding some ginger and green onions to the sauteed fish + soy sauce. Amazing way to cook fish.
Just found your channel ! Love your style !!
…. But hate carp🤣.
Love your content fella! If you don’t have an ice maker you can fill up water bottles and freeze them to add to your cooler to keep your fish fresh! It will improve the taste and quality of your catch!
