Yes, even you can get your limit this way.

Combine fishing with skeet shooting? A case of beer, few boxes of shotgun shells... A fun day on the river!

They should come down that river with nets like a trawler,and sell the fish to the Japonese. darn things I bet they tast like ka ka.
Or make fertilizer out of em.They have to be stopped before getting into the great lakes.
Does anyone know if anything is being done ?

Washington and Oregon make you throw back silver (grass) carp. Down south here, the things are a menace, MS and TN Rivers are both loaded with them.

Mick, if you cut out the mudline from the fillet and fry them in pure peanut oil they taste pretty good. Kinda boney though, think haddock, hake or similar salt water "trash fish". If you leave the mudline and cook them any other way they taste like the Columbia River smells in Portland, at low tide. Cross between mud, sewage and algea. Ever had fish in Paris, Venice or Brussels? Same thing.

I'd be trolling up and down that river with hand nets (so you only get the carp without harming the other fish populations) and throwing them up on the bank for the raccoons etc. to take care of! That's one pest you don't want to take over the waterways! I'm sure there'd be a game warden writing me tickets to the policeman's ball all day, but until they come up with a worthwhile solution I wouldn't be sitting with my hands in my pockets!

"Mud line" is the dark flesh near the base of the fillet. Where anything that causes "off" flavors settles in the flesh. No different than catfish.

Mick, I remember squaw fish all too well. Grew up in western Washington, used to go to Bonneville area and catch a truckload at a time for beer money. We've got big ugly sucker minnows like that in the rivers here too. Not many trout though (thank god, now THOSE taste awful), water is mostly too sluggish and/or warm.

Asian restaraunts here pay top dollar for wild caught carp (any kind) buffalo (another bony trash fish), suckers, chubs, etc. There is a market for them. Last time I went to Frisco carp and buffalo were priced higher than salmon (not surprising, salmon is inedible unless it came from Scandanavia).

Rough fish like that are why gefilte fish was invented.

My mom's recipe starts with extracting the "jelly" from the bones -- in other words, fish head, tail and skeleton soup stinking up the whole house!

The end result, however, is delicious.

Nineteen good sized carp -- those guys need a big pot and a meat grinder -- and some horseradish for the final results!
