They didn't gut em on the bank at the Conroe tourney. They had a refrigerated truck that they were put in after every angler brought them to weigh in then they were transported to food banks. So I imagine it'd be the same for this one

I personally don't have a problem with immediately killing invasive species. In fact it can be a good opportunity to clarify the difference between common carp, white Amur, 'asian' carp, 'and other rough fish. I had a lady stop while I was fishing the WCC yesterday and when I mentioned what I was fishing for, made the comment about carp being an invasive species that is ruining fisheries. I had the opportunity to create for her the distinction between common carp and invasive grass carp and Asian carps. And yes, I will kill the grass carp I catch outside of the protected stocked waters. I don't believe it is damaging to children to witness such a thing if the context is created for them.
