My sister does that. And you are right, salmon patties and carp patties are hard to tell apart.....but I smoke most of mine. Cut out the red meat and throw it away. If you soak it in brine overnight I find it helps too. Smoked carp is good provided you throw away that dark red meat just under the skin. Most people do not like its texture or flavor, but the rest is good.
