Carp
If you're after carp, Grenada Lake and its surrounding waterways present a unique opportunity. These often-overlooked fish thrive in the fertile waters of Mississippi. Focus your efforts in areas with shallow, muddy bottoms and plenty of vegetation. Pre-baiting a spot with corn or boilies can significantly increase your chances of success. A simple hair rig with a kernel of corn or a boilie is a common and effective setup. The backwater areas of the Skuna and Yalobusha Rivers are known to hold good numbers of carp. Be prepared for a fight, as these fish can grow quite large. A local tip: Pay attention to the wind direction, as carp often congregate on the windward side of the lake where food accumulates. The carp in Grenada Lake are generally healthy and robust, providing a challenging and rewarding fishing experience.
