Robm, you have a lot to learn, if you are going to preach a sermon, you should know what you are preaching. Most of the carp we have in the US are German carp, they are not native to North America, we have a few kinds of grass carp that are put into ponds to keep down grasses that are problematic, they are not native either and in my state they have to be sterile or they may not be used. Why are carp all over the country? Because many of the people who came to America from Europe ate carp and wanted carp to eat so they were brought to the US and they most certainly do eat the eggs of game fish and they tear up the habitat by rooting like hogs and pretty much eat everything just like a hog. They are pests, fun to catch and some people do have a taste for them, or fishing for them if you don't eat them. There is not a thing in the world wrong with bow hunting for carp if you don't eat them, I know people who use them for fertilizer in their gardens. The Native Americans did that. Carp are destructive and the populations need to be kept down, the misinformation here is from you.
