Carp
Elkhart, Kansas, offers some underappreciated carp fishing, particularly in the smaller lakes and ponds scattered around the area, as well as the Cimarron River. These fish are often overlooked, but they can provide a fantastic challenge for anglers of all skill levels. Spring and early summer are excellent times to target carp as they become more active with the warming water temperatures. Pre-baiting your chosen spot with corn or boilies for a few days can significantly increase your chances of success. The Cimarron River presents unique challenges due to its fluctuating water levels, but carp can be found in the deeper pools. A simple hair rig with a kernel of corn or a homemade dough ball is often all you need. Remember to use a strong hook and line, as these fish can put up a serious fight. Check local regulations regarding bait restrictions.
