Default Re: Carp question

Tough question when asked to kill a certain species of fish, but carp can be a nusiance especially if they gain numbers in a bass lake, being bottom feeders they damage bass redds and consume their eggs..That in itself could be a major problem...Common carp are not native to North American they have been introduced here from Asia, but so many years ago most people thing they have always been here...Bottom line large numbers of carp will be detremental to improving a bass fishery..But many bigger lakes have sizable populations of both, which satisfies 2 different types of angling..
