I just found your channel 😮 I LOVE IT

Gotta love those Chicago river tugboats(carp)😂

Those 2 corn cob-shaped buildings that were across the river from you are a very historic Chicago Landmark called Marina City which makes the location where you were fishing from right next to the N Walbash Bridge.

Thanks for the info couldn’t figure out what those buildings were called I do remember seeing them in the transformers movie I believe

I know the spot well. You can expect a crowd for sure if you hook up there. That drag was screaming. Good luck out there.

Carp are a beautiful looking fish

I live in Chicago and been fishing for carp my whole life! Carp are the best fighting fish out there! We call them the fresh water tarpon🤔😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@RiverBloodfishing the only down side of fishing at that spot is people start to crowd around you when you hook a fish? I know they mean well but sometimes it gets to be much🤔 but good luck on your next trip and hope you catch a monster!! My PB at that spot is 37lb!

Good job!

What are the characteristics of the equipment you use.?

I prefer 15 lb braid with 15 pound fluorocarbon leader with a rod that’s 7 feet long medium fast or medium extra fast but sometimes they get line shy in this river they see a lot of fishing you may have to use smaller line to trick them into biting

Be safe

Can you do an update video on markland dam?

@@CloudFT it’s best in the spring and fall, there are some there but not in great numbers, the bite starts to pick up around September, I also catch them this time of year from a boat but at night around barges with lights that attract bait fish

You can take it, but it’s really dirty water in the river

Its carp, an invasive species. You can kill it and let the seagulls eat it. As a ntive Chicagoan, i Wouldnt eat anything from the Chicago River
