[Music]
1:02
angers travel thousands upon thousands
1:05
of miles each year in search for that
1:06
ultimate trophy size fish that will
1:08
ultimately tip the scales to
1:09
unbelievable numbers an example might be
1:12
a thirty pound plus northern pike my
1:14
problem is in order to have a high
1:16
percentage shot of that bike or even a
1:17
40 pound lake code and I'm going to
1:19
travel hundreds if not thousands of
1:21
miles and spend thousands of dollars to
1:22
nail that trophy well on today's show
1:24
we're going to concentrate on two
1:26
species of fish that could reach Titanic
1:28
proportions it's easy to locate and it
1:30
doesn't cost an arm and a leg to catch
1:33
and and I are pretty confident our
1:35
ability to catch multiple species of
1:36
fish across the country nice job but
1:39
there are however certain species that
1:41
were somewhat Greenland looking for
1:43
Herbert Ison was a carp is one of them
1:45
that said we're also confident in our
1:47
ability to adapt in different mystery
1:49
situations along have to put a few in
1:50
the boat no matter what we're after that
1:52
is a blast
1:53
Ontario's definitely the carp top lower
1:55
this country along we have entitled the
1:57
globe in search of car we have studied
2:00
it extensively
2:00
this is Canada's next great game fish
2:03
that tells you right now this is also
2:04
talk with mainly expert who also briefed
2:06
Ontario is definitely carp habit oh this
2:10
could be their futures for github Canada
2:12
today we're using what's called a hair
2:14
rig the idea is ingenious the bass we're
2:17
using on this rig are sweet canned corn
2:19
and pre-made boilies I got this one on a
2:22
boilie at some corn what's so unique
2:24
about this rig is the hook is actually
2:25
not through the bait at all
2:27
the basically sits below the hook on an
2:29
extension of fishing line consider this
2:31
your your worm of bass fishing through
2:33
the years
2:34
anglers have founded carpets such as
2:35
sensitive mouths that they can feel
2:37
anything unnatural while taking in food
2:39
like a hook and a piece of corn in a
2:41
feed garden to call the girls in
2:43
by Framing debate on to the extended
2:45
fishing line past the park a carp now
2:48
will suck up the entire rig and then
2:49
attempt to spit it all out but the ultra
2:52
sharp pork should buy the spot to grab
2:55
yeah yeah I got one without forever all
2:58
going to be underneath your line
3:00
yeah going up current like a salmon
3:01
buddy yeah I forgot it no yeah one week
3:06
ago hey nice job but guy you're okay he
3:09
took off behind the boat
3:10
you can drop her out there no problem
3:13
he's not big I'm back in I'm back in the
3:15
game okay coming back out again but all
3:17
I I keep my out of your zone not he's
3:19
not a big fish if that was anything
3:21
anything in a car I don't think as we
3:23
know the potentials the size of these
3:24
fish here right I mean that is
3:27
definitely smaller going to come about
3:29
water normal Lake Ontario water is not
3:31
even close to that it's so clean but
3:32
this these guys can see bringing it they
3:35
can feed in almost any conditions work
3:37
buddy thank you know you gotta love it
3:39
thank you sir you know what it is fun
3:42
every time I've carp fish I've had a
3:44
blast
3:44
Eric offering to back it up laying on my
3:46
carpet was that small no he said he's a
3:49
nice place Oh carpet these guys usually
3:52
hooked themselves quite nicely like that
3:55
right there is perfect usually very easy
3:59
to get out of the mouth of the fish
4:01
there's lots of meat in there but they
4:03
come out really nice they hook really
4:04
well almost every time is perfect and
4:07
they hooked really wrong
4:10
no I cannot do off and you probably are
4:13
used to see a little car keys like that
4:15
look at that how awesome is that
4:18
and there are so many of these guys in
4:21
this area and I'm sure like Ontario you
4:23
don't usually see them this big usually
4:24
Great Lakes especially you see the giant
4:26
swimming around the shallow waters but
4:28
obviously they got to be the site before
4:29
they get to be the 30 pounders so I'm
4:32
going to put them back here we go I'm
4:36
just going to drop me like that
4:39
look at that color that guy hey our
4:41
perfect little piss
4:43
that's fun have you seen a better fish
4:48
for catch and release Ontario start
4:50
fishing is so good that tag at the word
4:53
is spread in Europe and the true carp
4:54
experts are starting to head westward
4:56
like you're upright this is their main
4:58
species unless they're abundant and they
5:00
fight like this
5:01
why not knowing full well that their
5:03
extensive knowledge of angling methods
5:05
combined with our under fish species is
5:07
a slam-dunk form of numbers as well as
5:09
size this action is hot it's a fresh
5:11
release fishing is a real eye-opener for
5:14
be tonight okay let's see oh my god DOMA
5:16
you see we're in mid to late fall a time
5:18
which we felt carp fishing which
5:20
essentially be turned off we're fishing
5:22
in November for them very similar to
5:24
largemouth bass fishing where water
5:25
temperatures dictate fish activity but
5:28
man were we wrong the whole different
5:30
game got what ya got what he's swimming
5:34
like a madman there he just he just
5:37
realized always going he's going out
5:41
that good coming up around you now you
5:45
want to pump and see if I really there
5:49
is already here Megan no our typical
5:53
well listen to it we're treating these
5:55
ten pounders like they're yeah like
5:58
they're insignificant meanwhile people
6:00
would kill for a fish like that might be
6:03
able to release him right behind the
6:05
boat here he's not that big
6:06
I got a rod oh if you wanna bring it
6:08
beside the motor here we get a good look
6:09
at him you're probably gonna have to
6:12
stand on the front of the boat oh he
6:16
dangled dessert oh no I got one you know
6:19
what I'm sittin me that's something well
6:22
so much for that
6:23
quick newly-released use a SS I got this
6:28
one on a boilie and some corn olive oil
6:31
oh they are hitting on a stuff other
6:33
than corn oh I think these things will
6:34
hit ID they get here but corn definitely
6:36
is oh it seems to be a key done that
6:38
right now hey still if you want to go
6:41
back over to the spot now are you clear
6:43
yeah I get out of the way actually I
6:44
move this right a bit we're good I'll go
6:48
over top you like a so and we're good
6:53
perfect fish for fun oh great fish for
6:56
kids like you better bring the kids out
6:59
visit in the boat you imagine see ya hey
7:04
with respect I'll pop you at the
7:07
lair soon as he went towards my line my
7:08
legs are gripping on no that's fun Yatta
7:11
I can see the way that talk big event
7:13
just perfect right in the lip even
7:17
release every time
7:21
[Music]
7:22
okay the rod there and then should be
7:29
like that like that little boy Li and a
7:36
couple pieces the core there's one
7:37
missing I had six eating the corn on
7:38
there that's a little boilie a premade
7:39
carp face goodbye little stopper in the
7:43
bottom and he ate it
7:44
weird-looking setup
7:46
[Music]
7:51
to get to our late season carp fishing
7:54
we took highway 401 from a Liverpool
7:55
Road exit we then traveled west on
7:57
Bailey and then turn south on West Shore
8:00
Boulevard next we headed east on beat
8:02
point from a nod in there it's a short
8:04
drive to the bowline experimentation
8:10
definitely a part of fishing and and
8:12
just always the first unlikely things up
8:14
today I'm fishing a conventional herring
8:17
but he's taking it to a whole other
8:18
level I thought is this if a carp is so
8:21
smart and sensitive to touch the white
8:23
not black them with ultra-light line six
8:25
sound test in fact yeah I mean all that
8:27
rod is taking the shock right that's why
8:29
you can use that you know light lining a
8:31
noodle rod on steroids by tying a simple
8:33
drop shot setup with a polymer or not
8:35
I've got a quick easy to tie here rig
8:37
with no extra class look at that how
8:41
hard fat fish
8:42
that is incredible as far as holding the
8:45
bait in place on the dropper line I use
8:47
a rubber bobber stop now I've got a
8:49
light hair rig that is obviously working
8:51
oh and the boot you go nice one buddy
8:56
got one edge that was a weird one I felt
8:59
him I don't even feel the bike he didn't
9:02
really like that and then I thought it
9:04
was those bait fish hittin the line yeah
9:05
I thought I better said anyways I got
9:10
him got one buddy
9:11
haha double nice I love it
9:16
figure this guy that's why a bit like
9:18
that they did he sat and gut right full
9:21
of something if I had I got the players
9:24
I might be able to pop him off right
9:25
here and I'll help you okay
9:26
I don't think they can Eddie's a net
9:28
this guy will just pop them up you're
9:30
watching that no I don't think so
9:34
this is crazy but look at that just keep
9:39
my players hopefully he can cooperate
9:42
with me a little bit I can see where
9:43
he's hooked okay and I got my bait back
9:48
that way kid how you feeling
9:50
I caught him way up there in the
9:52
headwater and he felt like nothing
9:54
coming down here and then all of a
9:57
sudden he got beyond my get 12 o'clock
10:00
position and he just streamed off into
10:02
all the water you might have a good'n I
10:04
don't know
10:05
we may never giant coming up now now
10:09
same as the others same thing yeah there
10:13

both common carp and the more unique
11:29
mirror carp available throat the
11:30
problems there's a bit of a breakdown
11:32
for spots that we here at this you can
11:33

11:38
water carp fishery in the world mouths
11:40
of water and a huge number of fish Lake

sorry I put it put them back Rico a
14:35
margarita you never seen a motor before
14:37
this day like take it as eejit again
14:44
[Music]
14:49
that is one fishnet claddagh the clothes
14:52
of it all right there they could pull
14:54
like tank treat them like a sports fish
14:57
and you can have fun all day long
15:01
[Music]
15:09
that what yeah boy going upriver that's
15:12
nice when they do that than that I love
15:14
it you got to love these rods though
15:17
look at this little bit all right man
15:18
look at this rod work yeah I mean all
15:20
that rod is taking the shock right
15:22
that's why you can use that nine eight
15:24
pounds if you hire your use until it
15:25
makes a makes a huge difference of Rod
15:27
cakes it's like the proficient use a big
15:30
long noodle rod takes all the absorption
15:32
they get use light lines so and it makes
15:34
it fun to it like basically they're
15:36
they're a noodle rod on steroids I mean
15:39
they're beefed up noodle rods you can
15:41
see they're real thick down at the butt
15:42
section a lot of strength down low but
15:44
the tip section is so light it is
15:47
unbelievably like the other key of
15:49
course is you have to have a real with a
15:52
great drag system especially with the
15:54
light line so you need a reel that's got
15:57
a really big surface drag surface and
15:59
this plates have got to be the size of a
16:00
quarter because when these things run
16:03
like they make real long sustain runs
16:05
and if you've got small drag plates they
16:07
tend to heat up and they'll bind and
16:09
that's when you get yourself in trouble
16:10
he's just using current to his advantage
16:12
he's going up well not really you think
16:15
you think of the other way around he's
16:16
actually working up against the current
16:18
which means he's fighting the current as
16:20
well add get him up something you see in
16:24
there look at that how sharp that fish
16:27
on that it is Jennifer oh yeah about
16:30
this little spot and it it's just loaded
16:32
with fish the size that is Ryan oh and a
16:38
book you go would like to squawk my
16:40
buddy thank you like that oh good only a
16:46
little bigger like that but that's heavy
16:48
yeah they weigh so much nothing to the
16:51
sides of the hood great get you know
16:53
what I'm predicting this is Canada's
16:54
next great game fish I'll call you right
16:56
now I hope you're right there's so many
16:58
of them all over our Great Lakes all the
17:00
tributaries they're fun they're
17:02
relatively easy to catch you don't need
17:05
a whole lot of sophisticated equipment
17:07
right here just a blast I wonder what
17:09
it's like the rest of Canada in Ontario
17:11
is loaded with fish but is the rest of
17:13
the country got the fish yeah
17:14
I know Manitoba's got some as well but
17:16
I'm very oh definitely the carp capital
17:18
of this country I no doubt about it but
17:20
man they're everywhere I carry this
17:25
fruit over three buddy that is a blast
17:38
well as you can see from today's show
17:40
Pete and I feel very confident in
17:42
Ontario's carp population and fishing
17:44
opportunities at least reliable and in
17:46
most cases are better than anywhere else
17:48
in the world the Europeans are
17:50
definitely way ahead of us when it comes
17:52
to carp fishing they've taken to fish
17:54
species that we've basically ignored for
17:56
decades and put it on its rightful
17:58
pedestal Ontario car it's something that
18:01
you definitely need to take advantage of
18:03
[Music]
18:09
today's perficient's took place on Lake
18:12
Ontario the Waypoint on your screen will
18:14
get your right there
18:15
since we're fishing in the cooler months
18:17
we tried to take advantage of a warm
18:19
water situation knowing that it would
18:21
have a concentration a cart using a boat
18:24
here it is your only option
18:26
try sweet corn boilie sandworms either
18:29
close to or just off the bottom be
18:31
prepared because there are some real
18:33
monsters working in this area fish in
18:38
Canada brought to you a part by turn the
