I'm glad they caught,just wish they hadn't kept what sounds like everything they caught.

One good thing about it is, they eat every single morsel of the fish. What got me mad was 2 weeks ago on the upper end at the mouth of Denton Creek there was a bow fishing rig and they would stick the carp and then chunk them back in the water. That upset me.

I think you hit this one on the head. If the people are going to eat the fish and harvest within legal limits, then good for them.....that's the whole reason carp were originally put in our waters.

But when you have....the takers...who just waste the fish and don't consider that there are people who would happily eat the fish they kill and then pollute the waters they kill out of.....well....ain't gettin' any respect from me.

Besides, carp and buffalo are plentiful in Grapevine and they are harvested less than many other fish. There will also be, in theory, more food to eat per fish with less there.

I would think it is better for the carp population that some be removed .. cause they aren't fished like the other fish..and is there any way I can hook up with someone that knows how to clean them to make fish patties cause this is the only way i have had carp and it was good ...send me a pm. and I'll meet up for some carp fishing here in the dfw area.
