Carp are a blast to catch, especially on lighter gear. If they're in the area, you can catch them pretty easily on some canned sweet corn from the grocery store. I rig a #6 Gamkatsu octopus circle hook snelled onto 14" of 20lb fluorocarbon tied to a swivel. Above that, have a small bead and a 1/4 oz egg sinker. Toss a handful of corn out to bring the fish closer and put 3-4 fat kernels on your hook, then toss out with the line tight and your drag loose. The fish should hook themselves. I have caught them from 2 lbs to nearly 40 lbs and they are great fighters

You can also sight fish for them using some bread crust with a small sturdy hook. Throw a handful of pieces out where the carp are feeding, gently lob your crust into the middle, and wait for a big swirl to suck your piece under. It's almost as good as a top water bass bite
