Default Re: New State record grass carp:

carp are very popular tablefare and sportfish in the rest of the world just never caught on in America. I will keep 1 once in awhile or if they are gut hooked as i never kill anything for no reason. they are very good early in the year before they really start rooting in the mud all summer and you can always do the cleansing in the baby pool if you are so inclined.I had posted an article on here awhile back about people eating them down south as a way to combat them as an invasive specie I know they are popular among Jewish americans and i have seen them sold @ the seafood market here in Northeast Philly in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood around passover and my buddys gmom loves them and i will give her a fish here and there also they are sold @ the reading terminal and in chinatown here in Philly so they are certainly edible.

If you don't like fish thats "fishy" eat chicken.

carp are the only edible fish that i wont eat, i took one home that i accedently snagged while bass fishing and it tasted like mud. maby if one is profesanally prepared, i would try it again but untill then, im staying away from carp
