In the heart of the picturesque province of Quebec lies a mystery lurking beneath the tranquil waters. A fish that has confounded scientists and sent shockwaves across social media platforms, igniting a frenzy of discussion and speculation amongst the public. Having heard stories of a specie of fish that could destroy entire ecosystems, I would have never imagined coming face to face with this plant devouring titan. This marks the unveiling of a captivating tale, one that revolves around the enigmatic presence of the grass carp. An invasive specie that has infiltrated Quebec’s pristine waters, previously shrouded in mystery but now officially documented, heralding the dawn of a new era in Quebec’s aquatic ecosystem."
Join us in this race against time, where every discovery brings us one step closer to unlocking the secrets of the elusive Grass Carp.
For any information regarding the presence of grass carp please contact: / melccfpchassepeche
We strongly encourage you to share this video with friends, family and fellow anglers in hopes of spreading awareness on the presence of Grass Carp in our waters.

This is a great story of collaboration and shared values. Congrats to Darian and Zach for their willingness to help the QC fisheries folks (I too can never remember their agency’s acronym ha!) but also a MAJOR kudos to the QC fisheries folks’ willingness to work with local anglers. You could hear genuine gratitude from them toward Darian. Congrats to all!

I fished for huge carp in a weir beside the Welland Canal as a kid. Every day they would make their way up to the weir bridge to feed. You could easily see them. Doughballs with worms worked best. I would trade the fish for pizza and DQ treats with the Americans who came to fish in Port Colborne. You needed 20lb test to land them, the biggest I caught was 4ft. I had one fishing pole ripped out of my hands when a Sturgeon took the bait. Excellent video.

@david8691 Ай бұрын

In retrospect, I think I have seen one of these in the Lachine Canal. I fish there a lot and there was one carp that I saw several times that was larger than the other carp, darker, and had that upside down face. This was in 2021 or 2022 but I haven't seen one since then.

Now, there's no vegetation around the shore of the intier laval island! Dont know if it has something to do with those carps.. It's really hard to find bass when there's no vegetation !🤷‍♂️✌️👍👌♥️🐟🎣

i have some dificulty understanding why are these carps different from the protected golden carp . It seem to be grass carp, eating greens like al the carps I know. I remember as a threat the chinese carp and steel head carp, two non indigenous species that were decimating the eggs and youngsters of other species. I did not hear about them for a while. Is that problem solved?

@savagefishing8133 Ай бұрын

They were considered invasive at first. They are now out of control. Same for the Tench and goby. These Asian carp are new enough that we still have a fighting chance.

@Grundewalt Ай бұрын

@@savagefishing8133 so if out of control...what can be done? why there is no campain to promote this good protein and instead we pay money to promote insects as food. Eg in the North of Europe the King Crab was invasive at some point, dunno what happened, as in other areas that crab is a premium catch

@savagefishing8133 Ай бұрын

@@Grundewalt I can't answer that question as I have no idea what to tell you. In some fisheries, gobies are the reason behind trophy fish, especially smallmouth. They are also responsible for eating many of our fish's eggs... How can we get rid of them all though? Part of the reason they are hard to control is because if you told people to kill them it is difficult to ID them. People already kill common carp all the time because they think that they are Asian carp. Your average fisherman can not differenciate one from the other.

@Grundewalt Ай бұрын

@@savagefishing8133 thanks for the reply. You say kill. Why not catch clean cook? Carp is delicious

@savagefishing8133 Ай бұрын

⁠carp have been given the title as a trash fish throughout most of North America. The best way to explain it I guess is that people love to believe rumours as opposed to finding out themselves. I myself have never tried carp.

@allantulli5546 Ай бұрын

Great Video, loved it. The color of the fish looks like one of the triploid "golden" grass carp they used to sell at aqua Tropical and other stores ( I had one in my koi pond that i euthanized when it got too big). The disconcerting thing is there were more than one of them , can't wait to hear scientific results. Invasive species are a problem - I'm pretty sure I've seen at least one Wels catfish in the Lac St. louis area of the St. Lawrence river. It was way too big to be one of the local species and it looked like what i saw on the TV show river monsters.

Just a diversion from the main topic: What do you think bit that 11-year-old boy from L.A., sustaining at least one deep cut on his leg, that required a hospital visit? This was last week, around the 04-05th, while swimming at the (enclosed) public beach on Ile Ste-Helene. Apparently, the authorities were also dumbfounded, by this 'attack'.

@savagefishing8133 Ай бұрын

It's been know that there are big predator fish in those waters. They don't have good eyesight. Definitely had no intentions of hurting the boy, just an accident. There are videos online of musky attacking trolling motors and we use giant lures to catch them. They are definitely the apex predator but not usually a danger to humans.
