Carp
Carp anglers looking for a new challenge might be surprised by the opportunities around Centerville, South Dakota. While not as famous as other carp hotspots, the Vermillion River and its associated backwaters hold a healthy population of common carp. Spring and early summer, when the carp are spawning, can be particularly productive. Pre-baiting your chosen swim with corn or boilies for a few days beforehand will greatly increase your chances of success. Look for areas with slower currents and plenty of vegetation. A simple hair rig with a boilie or corn is a standard approach. Access to the Vermillion River can be found at various road crossings and public access points, but be mindful of private property. Remember to check the South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks regulations regarding carp fishing, as regulations may vary for non-game species. The carp here aren't heavily pressured, so even moderately sized fish can put up a good fight.
