Carp Fishing American Style “Carpocalypse Now” With Remote Control Boats!

Animal Planet at 8:00pm e/p SUNDAY September 30th, Off The Hook Extreme Catches, Season 1 Episode 10 “Carpocalypse”

Americans are known for their ingenuity and when it comes to fishing we’re no different. Animal Planet’s host of the new series “Off The Hook Extreme Catches” traveled across the USA and dared to seek out the most ingenious ways Americans are putting fish on the hook!

From kayaking for bass down treacherous rapids to fishing from a jet-ski he has uncovered some really productive ways to fish.

This season of “Off The Hook Extreme Catches” comes to and end tonight with the seasons finale that’s sure to get us Carp guys excited! Tonight’s episode reminds me of some old movie called “Apocalypse Now” this episode is rightly called “Carpocalypse Now”! Why, host Eric Young goes after the invasive species known as the Asian Carp, and when I say invasive I mean these fish have invaded out waters and have become a nuisance to fishermen everywhere. There’s not too many redeeming qualities about these carp except they make good fertilizer, and if you’re starving you’d have no problem catching one.

In this episode Eric meets up with a bunch of Carp Fishermen named The Peoria Carp Hunters and has some down-home fun with these critters! Talk about shooting fish in a barrel watch em water ski down the Illinois River with implements of destruction in hand, as these invasive Carp meet their makers on the end of a spear or tennis racket!

As an added bonus to the finale episode of “Off The Hook” watch as we put remote control boats to the task of catching some fish too!

The show airs on Animal Planet at 8:00pm e/p SUNDAY September 30th, Off The Hook Extreme Catches, Season 1 Episode 10 “Carpocalypse”

Why Carp fishing is not as popular in the USA as it is Europe.

Why isn’t Carp fishing in the USA as popular as it is in Europe?

I’m often wondering why in the USA there isn’t as much interest in fishing for Carp as there is in Europe. I’ve tried to explain it to several people, I wish I knew the real answer, but here goes. From what I’m told is that the Carp here in the U.S. are not as tasty as European Carp, true or false? Personally I don’t think that’s really why. The other reason I heard is the Carp in Europe are HUGE compared to ours. I’m going to investegate a little more and report back, so in the meantime watch these videos and watch us fishing for Carp in the U.S.
Here is another one caught by my father, at the Carters lake in GA, USA. This big common was one of the biggest ones we cought so far from Carters lake. We could’t weigh it because we had no scale, but I guess you guys can guess ho much it weighs. We will have a scale for our future videos, hopefully. Enjoy and comment. Thanks
