Eating carp
Carp can be excellent eating IF prepared correctly. I prefer to fillet and then smoke mine at a low temp. They are bony and some score to cut the bone in bits but I prefer to leave bone whole on large carp. It can also be fried or canned (fish patties from canned carp taste like salmon patties use same recipe. One thing though. There is a dark red line of meat just under the skin. It has a strong flavor most find disagreeable .Cut it out and throw it away before cooking.
