I’ve been chasing them on fly for a few years now, they are a heap of fun and when you work them out it’s hard not to catch them, the more people that get into it the better for our cod fisheries.
We have these in the States too and they are pretty much an invasive trash fish. We catch em on dough balls or nightcrawlers or corn. They are a pain in the ass but do put up a pretty good fight! We try and get rid of them but they multiply fast and can take over a lake or pond so they are invasive. But when nothing else is biting you can always count on them bc they arent real smart!😎
Epic drone shots! Great video 👌 I love chasing mud marlin, my dog goes in and retrieves them for me after their hooked up haha. I use 2" Zman Grubz and have caught hundreds over the last couple of years. Great fun 👌
@@SammyHitzkeFishing hahah if you get the chance watch this, it was videod and exported in portrait mode so I could put clips onto my instragram story but you'll get the idea 🤣 🍻 ruclips.net/video/12Qmi92VrHA/видео.html
I have the same issue here where I live often. They are everywhere here in Germany but often in really muddy waters. There’s several things you can do about it: 1. You feed them a bit with some bread for example so they come up and you can see them at least way better. 2. You need to wait until they are up simply and cruise where you can at least see them and have a clou where you need to cast to. Often I miss the bite or think they bite and they didn’t really. Hard to see and to say. I think over the years I just caught 1 or 2 with just blind casting and practicing so it’s really better you would be able to see them at the surface. Spring is great. Summer can be good and slowly chances going down in later autumn and winter very rare to have any contact. Just my two cents. Maybe they can still buy you a few muddy carp wherever you live man. 😂☺️
There got to be one of the hardest fighting freshwater fish we've got in Australia. I lived in the ACT for a couple of years and started mucking around with the carp a fair bit, as soon as I started catching them on surface lures I new they would take a fly, every chance I got I was down at the lake tricking them with the fly rod, absolutely loved it, knew it would start to take off.
Great work mate i got my first mud marlin on fly at lake liddel near Muswellbrook NSW, the rod i used was a cheap brand ( jarvis walker i think) rod an reel combo that cost maybee $100 all up, flurocarbon leader and a black or olive wooly buggar fly, during the singleton flyfishing clubs anual carp bash at the lake we would literaly pull a trailer load every day, the fish were donated to a local orange farmer who used them as fertilizer Carp are one of the best fish to get into fly fishing i believe as they often “tail” like a trout or many salt species on the flats, and as you found out in the video ate great fun. I challenge you to take a Tilapia on fly now, also great fun and easy to catch if they are guarding beds
Good stuff, love chasing the mud marlin on fly, was right into it 20 years back in a local impoundment with super clear water. They will eat just about any presentation, get in front of their nose and subtle movements. Great fun, and yeah they fight well.
The first thing I shot with a 44 handgun was a carp when I was 15. We were pig shooting along the Parroo channel near Wilcania and when hanging around camp we'd fish the channel and shoot carp with handguns. The kick of the 44 blew it out of my hand and I dropped it in the dirt. Everyone there pissing themselves laughing (couple of soldiers, one ex SAS), I was red with embarrassment
Fun video mate! It's good that we don't have any carp or other invasives in our local waters over here, but sometimes when I see fishing videos like this I kinda wish we did LOL
These are actually pretty good eating by smoking them. Remove guts , head and tail . Leaving the scales on , cut about 4-5 inches long. Better with several beers. From Nevada , Mark T.
Nice video Sam. That looks like heaps of fun. I think you need to go and catch a whole heap more of those goldfish before they dirty up the water and you can't see them 😉
My biggest Carp was in a Comp. in Dalby @ 84cm on 6lb line and 50min to land it. Where did you fish in this video.? We used to fish the creek in town every sunday afternoon for fun. We called ourselves the Outback Sports Fishing Association lol. That was 20yrs ago.
hey bro... nice video as usual.. Just curious is this at Wyaralong dam?... would love to come for a drive down from Noosa to help decrease the numbers... curious to ask if you have eaten them, they look fat and meaty... could be worthy to marinate in some soy sauce, pan fry in some butter and garlic... love that your in Qld. so awesome to see your cool videos in my own back yard... cheers mate..
I never thought I'd see the day Sammy posted a carp fishing video but I was proven wrong! A true angler through and through. It is a shame you have to dispose of the fish but completely understandable given the environmental impact. If there was a way you could send them back to Europe so I could catch some of them, that'd be great!
I don't know how clean the water is that you're taking them out of,(Here they're considered toxic waste because of their PCB and Mercury content),but they not bad smoked, deep fried, or pickled.
Caught a 45cm carp on fly in shallow a creek was amazing to watch many casts many different flies before i got one to bite then seeing it take it from surface was magical
That was a really cool vid. I do like slaying ferals on land and water. Format was ok kinda different, probably wouldn't like too much voice over. I've got ponds full of Tillys just down the road but the developer turned off the aerator and the lake has gone yuk. Funny that as they are trying to build over some was good lake habitat.
Maybe you should do a cook up with carp. I have heard stories that they are not bad eating if treated right. Further the Chinese love eating them from what i have heard so you might want to look in that direction. Imagine if people started eating them how quick they would deplete
What a good video, SO how did that species end up in an landlocked waterway?? On a lighter note there will NOT be anymore cartons of brewkies this Xmas, No lures ... you blew your "nearly" last chance
Maggie Beers has eaten them on her old show The Cook and the Chef, and was extremely impressed with their eating qualities. I think a lot of the attitude about them is based on the abundant quality and quantities of fish in this country back in the day. Maggie knows her food and I haven't seen her be wrong about the edibility of anything else.
What, no catch & cook. You should have tried it as not bad eating and the ones in the rivers put up a bigger fight as they are a bit fitter having to battle the river
Been waving the wand at golden bonefish for years. Only just started eating them. Check the meat eater series pardon my plate for how to prepare and cook. Mild flavour and no bones.
Ya think for the cause of native species conservation you’d let us know what impoundment you were fishing!😜. So where can a fellow fly fisherman try this out to save the local environment?
Great video but I’m a little disappointed with the obvious lack of dad joke. Surely you could of slipped in carpe diem somewhere. Dropping the ball Sammy.
Hey bro I am ready for the gf tonight let’s hope panthers win I don’t go for them I am for the storm but unfortunately they didn’t make it so I am going for the panthers
“So sick” “so much fun” let’s kill them all? If Carp have been around for your entire life span then they are no longer invasive, the are naturalized (google it). A species that an entire country/continent has put a “hit” out on & still thrives, deserves some respect. Just obeying the law I know, ya figure a country descendant from criminals could figure out how to break suck a law. Not that the world’s most sought after sport-fish needs you too…….. Still a big fan Sammy!
I think it’s just the impact they have on the natives species mate. They overrun habitat and cause our native fish to become endangered. Still good fun to chase though 🍻🍻

Do you recon this would work in muddy water lakes? Allot of the carp in my area are in muddy water
I have the same issue here where I live often. They are everywhere here in Germany but often in really muddy waters. There’s several things you can do about it:
1. You feed them a bit with some bread for example so they come up and you can see them at least way better.

Hey mate, I’ve caught a fair few tilapia on fly in creeks, but these ones in the dam seem to be completely uninterested in flies 🧐🧐
@@SammyHitzkeFishing ive only caught them over spawning beds in the dams in mungara reserve off Afleck av Petrie, but that was early 2000’s
Enjoyable session Mate bit different the way I went Carp fishing “ 12 gauge “ was a popular way on the farm
😂😂😂 yeah the old shot gun would do the job!
Another great episode. Thanks.
Cheers mate!
Finally a bit of fly action, mad vid loving it Sammy! 👌🤙
Hahah it was bound to happen sooner or later!
Good stuff, love chasing the mud marlin on fly, was right into it 20 years back in a local impoundment with super clear water. They will eat just about any presentation, get in front of their nose and subtle movements. Great fun, and yeah they fight well.

Hahah well just add them too your list when you come over here. We have plenty! 😂
great stuff Sammy
Thanks mate!
Some fly fishing never hurts!!
Hahah never at all! 👌👌
Sight fishing for carp with my 3WT is second only to nymphing for Yellowfish in my book, great video!
It’s great fun!!
Was a cool day mate, video came up cool as!! Working on my first edit now and I’ll let you know when it up 😁.
Have to catch up again soon 👍
Bloody oath mate! Had a ball! Cheers for sharing your knowledge! 🍻🍻

Nice work guys 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Cheers mate!
Good ol Carp slay 💪🏼
Just good honest fun it is 👌
Awesome video mate.
Thanks mate!
G’day Sammy that was just to cool for school hahaha,
Actually seeing the carp smash the fly was awesome. 😍😎
Cheers mate! Yeah love the visual fishing as well! So much fun!
What lb fly line and leader you running Sammy?
Good snapper bait Sammy
Is that legit? A few people have said that now hey..
Nice one mate.. 🎣👌
Cheers legend!
Cheers! 🎣🎣🎣👌👌
Nice video Sam.
That looks like heaps of fun.
I think you need to go and catch a whole heap more of those goldfish before they dirty up the water and you can't see them 😉

Hey mate, yeah it certainly is! I was going to do a catch and cook but was advised against it because of blue green algae 😩
Sammy you should try fishing at Leslie Dam. They have a lot of huge cod there and fishes just as good as Glenlyon Dam
Yeah I’ll try get out there at some stage. Didnt get to chase cod at all this season 😢
Great vid mate
Thanks mate!
good stuff old mate 👌
Cheers mate 🍻🍻
great video, is it a must to use fly fishing style or could you have a crack with a light spin set up?
Thanks mate! You could definitely catch them on light spin tackle with a plastic or even little bit of bait 👌
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Thanks mate, love the content. Would love to see a Barra vid with Lures but obviously isnt local.
Love the video sammy
🙌🙌 cheers legend!
Sammy is that up at Wyralong Dam? That place is loaded with them! Tillilapia as well are huge.
Surely was mate! The tilly’s are insane hey! Really hard to catch though 🤯
@@SammyHitzkeFishing small sharp hook and worm mate on a stick bob where you can see the smallest of interest by the stick slowly moving downwards..
I used to go to the Charlie carp tournament in Deniliquin

Hi sam
What place is that
Plan to bring my family for fishing
Cheers
Hahah cheers mate! I’ll give everything a try at least once! In this case I’ll be going again for sure! 👌

The old mud marlin are so much fun on light gear
They are awesome hey! Put on a great show!
You trying to break into the Pommy market mate? They’d be incredulous at the carp action in this vid. Keep up the great work Sammy Rinella 😂
🤣🤣 gotta get amongst those overseas views mate!
Where is the location of this fishing ground.
Great vid sammy. You should see the fight of them when they get up to the 14kg mark.
Bloody oath! One that big would definitely kick up a stink!
I've shot 200+ carp over the years with my compound bow, great fun!
Yeah that sounds like good fun!!
They make brilliant snapper baits. All my best reds have come from Carp strip's.
I’m going to have to give this a try I think!

A couple of Corn kernals Sammy carp love it
Haha that’s cheating though 😉🤣
Great video ,any chance of the link to you friends Chanel thankyou
‘Link In The description ‘.. not..
It’s in the description now. There was a bit tech difficulty with it when I posted the video
Eating or rooting!🤣👍
Not the worst two things to be doing 💁♂️
Maybe you should do a cook up with carp. I have heard stories that they are not bad eating if treated right. Further the Chinese love eating them from what i have heard so you might want to look in that direction. Imagine if people started eating them how quick they would deplete
Haha yeah true! Unfortunately can’t eat them for this dam due to the blue green algae 😢
Looks like an eagle tried to snag that first fish for lunch.
Yeah that’s what I think as well! Looks like his Luke ran out 💁♂️
What a good video, SO how did that species end up in an landlocked waterway?? On a lighter note there will NOT be anymore cartons of brewkies this Xmas, No lures ... you blew your "nearly" last chance
Hahah I’m so confused! Why no beers this Xmas?!?
Great video, but disappointed there wasn't a CLEAN and COOK at the end. Steve Rinella has done it 😂
I was so keen to try it but got advised against it due to blue green algae 😩
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Fair enough mate. Tight lines.
We have giants here...30lbs. is not uncommon..We use floaters on lite-spinning gear...Good stuff !
Oh that sounds like fun! Big ones too 👌👌
Hey Sammy, is this fish eatable?
Maggie Beers has eaten them on her old show The Cook and the Chef, and was extremely impressed with their eating qualities. I think a lot of the attitude about them is based on the abundant quality and quantities of fish in this country back in the day. Maggie knows her food and I haven't seen her be wrong about the edibility of anything else.
if your desperate
I think they are mate. From this particular impoundment you wouldn’t want to eat them because of the blue green algae 👍
Sammy!! A big call, I’m a couple in and getting GF ready so I’ll watch later. Thanks for being there every Sunday. Cheers mate.🍻🍻🍺
How was the footy though! What a game 💪💪
What, no catch & cook. You should have tried it as not bad eating and the ones in the rivers put up a bigger fight as they are a bit fitter having to battle the river

@@SammyHitzkeFishing Thanks mate. I’ll get my 550 Frontier out of storage, change over the fuel and get the kids and missus out there.
I've always wanted to learn fly, one day im just gonna bite the bullet and accept that I will loon silly trying to learn
Hahah yeah it does take a little while to get the hang of it, great fun though! 🍻🍻
Ya think for the cause of native species conservation you’d let us know what impoundment you were fishing!😜. So where can a fellow fly fisherman try this out to save the local environment?
Wyaralong dam mate, or any of the hundreds of systems that have carp in them 🍻🍻🍻
This is how you test gear.
“European” carp are non-native in most of Europe too.Sometimes a pest as well.
Well there you go! Didn’t know that!
I’ll have to drag my fly gear out of the shed and have a go at the mud marlins…
Give it a whirl mate! It’s awesome!
Great video but I’m a little disappointed with the obvious lack of dad joke. Surely you could of slipped in carpe diem somewhere. Dropping the ball Sammy.

Bloody oath that do!

Catch n cook carp? Why waste it!
I was planning on it, but was advised against it due to blue green algae 🤷♂️
He’s a little too much all over the place. My favorite fishing shows are about good fishing and good videos
“So sick” “so much fun” let’s kill them all? If Carp have been around for your entire life span then they are no longer invasive, the are naturalized (google it). A species that an entire country/continent has put a “hit” out on & still thrives, deserves some respect. Just obeying the law I know, ya figure a country descendant from criminals could figure out how to break suck a law. Not that the world’s most sought after sport-fish needs you too……..
Still a big fan Sammy!
I think it’s just the impact they have on the natives species mate. They overrun habitat and cause our native fish to become endangered. Still good fun to chase though 🍻🍻
