Outstanding picture-do you have any idea how many pounds you took? This will greatly help that water way clean itself up-more folks need to make this type of harvest.

roughly 2700 to 3000 lbs. we not only help this waterway but the fish were given to a local crayfish trapper who traps the rusty crayfish(another nonnative) here in wisconsin. last year he used about 3000 lbs of carp(most given to him by the wisconsin bowfishing assocation and its members) a week to remove 40,000 lbs of rusty crayfish from wisconsin waters.
