I hate carp. I cut my line when I snag one at the ponds.

Howard Sprague caught “Old Sam” the carp in Andy Griffith episode “Big Fish in a Small Town”, which was the only color episode worth a damn in my opinion.

That is a pretty small carp by Mississippi River standards.

Here is the massive gold-colored one my buddy caught up by Prairie Du Chien last spring:

If you ever eat "fish sticks", you're actually buying carp (along with any other fish in the river).

If you ever eat "fish sticks", you're actually a gay fish.

Used to catch them for my grandfather. He loved them and didn't mind the bones.
Dad and I would smoke them and they were pretty good that way.
Solid white meat after cutting the red line out.

Smoked carp is outstanding.

A fond childhood memory of fishing below one the DSM River dams....a dad teaching his kids to take baseball bat to a carp that had been caught.....Deep Moments with Jack Handy

I haven't had scored deep fried Carp for several years, but it is delicious IMO. Smoked also great.

the only fishing rod I ever broke was while catching a monster carp from the Iowa River. Landed it by pulling the line hand-over-hand, but after I saw what is was, I threw it back.

Eh it’s wrong anyways. The great majority of fish sticks including Gorton’s and Van De Camp are 100% Alaskan Pollock. The only brands I could find that have carp are Kosherific and Silverfin neither of which are carried by Publix, Amazon or Whole Foods.

Nebraskans? The only good carp is a dead carp!

I caught a tagged carp from the carp contest in Blackhawk lake. Unfortunately it was 3 days after the contest. Woulda been worth $500 on Sunday but it was worth $50 on Wednesday. Lol
