Carp

Carp fishing in Beauregard, Mississippi, offers a unique angling experience in the heart of the South. While not as widely targeted as other species, the carp in the local freshwater systems, including small rivers, ponds, and oxbow lakes, can reach impressive sizes. Spring and early summer are excellent times to target carp, as they become more active with the warming water temperatures and begin spawning. Consider pre-baiting your chosen spot for a few days with corn or boilies to attract the fish. A simple hair rig with a kernel of corn or a boilie is a proven method. Many anglers find success fishing near structure or submerged vegetation. Access to some of the best carp spots may require some exploration, as they are often off the beaten path. Be mindful of private property and obtain permission where necessary. The carp in this region are known for their powerful runs, so be prepared for a good fight.
