Article from TPWD http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/media/pwd_br_t3200_1429.pdfExcerpt Once caught, large carp may be handled with care, photographed, and then released. How ever, carp under 10 pounds can be good eating if prepared properly. Deep-fat frying, baking, smoking, pressure-cooking, chowdering, and pickling are methods that can be used to prepare carp for the table.
I tend to over think fishing. Please help me.
When I am over complicating something please kick me in the face. Hard.

Again, he released the fish back in the water.
I was there and I saw it with my own eyes.

Why are we fighting with people that we could be educating about carp fishing/ carp care/ misconceptions of carp?

I agree, I think WE get a bit passionate about our fish of choice. I was impressed that TPWD had that PDF posted. Many (but not close to all) have come a long way to seeing things differently.
I can't really complain too much though, I once thought that carp were a vile invasive fish.

Aside from how the Game Warden handled fish I can say that some carp fishermen handle them equally as bad! On the importance of fish care putting a large fish in a retaining sack and leaving it at the lake is certainly worse than holding it as the Warden is.

people to this day still eat carp and buffalo. "It's as simple as that. Joe Tess Place began as a neighborhood tavern in the 1930s. The main attraction became the Famous Fish Sandwich itself. Cut carp portions were fried in a skillet, placed in a cookie jar and sold for 15 cents. Ever since, the humble carp has been the driving force behind Joe Tess Place. From its simple beginnings, Joe Tess Place is now a successful family restaurant in the tradition of friendly service and high quality fresh fish products."

If you want carp to stay in the Denton ponds you should email Jim Mays and tell him.

Let me repost, the biologist cradled the fish like a little baby and ask a young man on the bank if he would like to have it. He then gently wrapped it a fine silk blanket and iced it down.
The fish is now feeding a starving family of orphans that live down by the river in a tent.
