Carp
Carp fishing around Minto, North Dakota, offers a surprisingly accessible and rewarding angling experience. The Red River and its tributaries provide ample habitat for these often-overlooked fish. Spring and early summer, when the water warms up, are excellent times to target carp as they become more active and move into shallower areas to spawn. Pre-baiting your chosen spot with corn or boilies for a few days can significantly increase your chances of success. A helpful tip for fishing near Minto is to locate areas with slower currents and plenty of vegetation or submerged structure. These are prime carp holding spots. Simple rigs with hair-rigged corn or boilies are effective. Public access points along the Red River provide convenient access. Be prepared for a fight, as carp can be powerful and tenacious fighters, especially in the current. Remember to handle carp with care and return them to the water unharmed to help maintain the fishery.
