no i dont eat any of the fish thats againts the law hear in uk
just catch them take nice pic see how heavy they are then put them back for someone else to catch
hear in uk the person who owns the lake owns the fish in it the bigger the fish in the lake the more he can charge to fish for them so fishing lakes are run like a buisness
im not sure but i think in usa dont you class carp as invasive species and kill them as they eat the spawn of bass witch is the fish you preffer to catch
