The Sport of Carp Fishing

JMC wrote:


Carp anglers are so concerned about harming the fish that the protocol
for photography dictates the fisherman kneel or squat while holding the
fish. If the fish is accidentally dropped, it won't have so far to fall.
Hook wounds and damaged fins are treated with antiseptic.

Down here the protocol is to cut their stinking heads off then let them go.
There's no denying carp are a good fighting fish, but they are a
destructive pest. Anyone releasing a carp deserves to have all their
gear confiscated, and face court.

A $250,000 prize awaits the fisherman who can break the Texas common
carp record of 41.5 pounds during the Texas Carp Challenge.

That *would* be a fun catch on 6lb line. Most spots i go to the carp are
70-100cm+. Killing them is a civic duty.

A quarter of a million dollars would surely be considered a cure for the common carp.
Yes, if it was spent on rotenone to kill them.

I simply cant believe how ignorant you are. If you were just a bit smarter,
you would understand that carp days are coming and coming quickly to the
States. You are simply so completely blinded with whatever all those
colorful fishing magazines tell you that you would not even consider
anything but bass fishing. Bass fishing is a lot of fun, but hey, open your
eyes!

I bet if someone in the USA starts up CarpMaster and put some money into
marketing (and this will happen very soon) you will be the first one to
switch

I bet I wouldn't, nothing and I mean nothing beats the excitement I get from
chasing bass down, I've fished for a lot of different fish, freshwater and
sal****er alike, nothing gets my blood pumping faster than a bass hitting my
lure or bait... Tuna come pretty close, but that's about it, but pound for
pound the Bluegill might be the hardest fighting fish. I wish we had some 5
pound bluegills. Bluegill Master, I would sign up for that :-)

As soon as carp become a "game fish", you can start to write off all
native fish, the damage to the water, and habitat, to native fish, that
carp cause, is well known, trying to control their numbers, by killing
every carp caught, is the only thing that helps keep them in check, some
DNR's have poisoned whole bodies of water killing everything , just to
get the carp out, then restocking native fish. When carp become a game
fish, they will start putting limits on them, and IDIOTS will start C&R
them, it won't take long, and they will become at least 80% of a body of
water's fish bio-mass. actually they are doing this now, with no
protection. This is a "PROVEN" FACT !!!!!!!!!!!

Sure carp are fun to catch, shooting coyotes is fun too, and here, in
the south, where coyotes are not native, that they have no place in our
eco-system, we have fun eradicating them. Just like we do with the
imported starlings

If you like carp fishing ,, fine,, have at it, but remove every carp you
catch, eat them , give them away, plant them in your garden, there sure
is no shortage of them, and there never will be, untill we convince the
DNR's to poison them "all". At least you crap fishermen can help control
their numbers, then we bass fishermen, would not bad mouth ya'll so much.

Another solution, is there becoming a commercial market for them,
netting them in huge numbers.
