Carp
Carp fishing near Marshall, Texas, offers a unique and often overlooked angling experience. The slow-moving waters of Caddo Lake and its tributaries provide ideal habitat for these overlooked giants. While not traditionally targeted by many anglers in the area, carp can be found in good numbers. Spring and early summer are excellent times to target them as they 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. Look for areas with soft bottoms and submerged vegetation. A simple hair rig with a kernel of corn or a boilie is a proven method. Be prepared for a strong fight! Public access to Caddo Lake is available at various boat ramps and shoreline access points, but be sure to check local regulations regarding baiting and fishing licenses. Many of the carp in Caddo are impressively sized, often reaching double-digit weights.
