A KY commercial fisherman in a catfish forum was trying to educate us on the carp. Some members bad mouthed him because of his line of work and he was removed to shut them up. Since the carp were in most places already he would go months without catching a cat. Seems that KY is doing more than any other state in trying to control them.
My chickens like them. They are good for the garden and they get the whole fish instead of crappie trimmings.
