Carp

Carp anglers looking for a new challenge should consider the waters around Funston, Georgia. While not always the most sought-after species, the carp here can grow to impressive sizes. Local ponds and smaller lakes, often overlooked by other anglers, can hold some real surprises. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target them, when water temperatures are moderate. Pre-baiting a spot for a few days with corn or boilies can significantly increase your chances. Many ponds are on private land, so always seek permission before fishing. The carp in this region are generally quite wary, so use a stealthy approach and lighter lines than you might expect. Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors and presentations of your bait – they can be picky!
