Carp fishing is a specialized style of fishing and carp are pursued by a certain breed of fisherman. While this species of fish is not what most people target as the fish they want to catch there is no denying many people are Carp fishing exclusively. I have caught carp before while fishing for bass and catfish, and a carp is a lot of fun to catch because they grow to a large size and put up a good fight. Many Carp fishing fan's might assume this is a native North American fish but the carp is not. This species of fish was imported in the 1880's as a food source for an ever growing population and while Carp fishing did not catch on for many years due to the need for the fish to begin to reproduce and populate the waters of lakes and rivers in America the first carp were raised in what are now called fish farms. Gradually the species did spawn and adapted quite well to the waters of America and now can be found in the waters of 48 states.
