Carp
Carp fishing in Mullens, West Virginia, might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but the Guyandotte River and some of the larger ponds hold a surprising number of these overlooked fish. They tend to congregate in areas with slower current and abundant vegetation. Spring and early summer, when the carp are spawning, can be particularly productive. Pre-baiting your chosen spot for a few days with corn or boilies can significantly increase your chances of success. Access to the river is available at several points along Route 16. Local anglers often use simple hair rigs with corn or dough balls. Be prepared for a good fight, as these river carp can be surprisingly strong. Keep in mind that carp are often caught in areas also popular with other anglers, so be mindful of your lines and surroundings.
