Carp
Carp fishing near Kirby offers a unique and often overlooked angling experience. The San Antonio River and its connected waterways hold a healthy population of carp, providing ample opportunities for anglers seeking a challenging fight. Spring and summer are excellent times to target them, as they become more active in the warmer water. Corn, dough balls, and boilies are all effective baits. A common local tactic is to pre-bait an area for a few days before fishing to attract the carp. Look for carp in slower-moving sections of the river, especially near vegetation or submerged structure. While carp are often overlooked, they can grow to impressive sizes and provide a surprisingly strong fight. Access to the river is available at several points, but be mindful of private property. Remember to use appropriate tackle, as carp can put up a serious battle. Practice catch and release to help maintain this underappreciated fishery.
