What do you do with the carp caught?
I read somewhere that they should be burnt?

Carp get chopped up for yabby bail or thrown up on the banks for hawks, eagles & foxes.
They are working well for the yabby bait!!!
I've given up cooking & eating them but Brian is still chewing them up!

I didn't know that the carp were edible.

Carp are very edible.

another way is to boil the carp in a pot with a river stone. When the flesh is soft, remove the stone and eat it.

They are a declared noxious fish in most states if not all, noxious fish are to be destroyed and not returned to the water. They severely impact on native fish species and easily displace them with their feeding and breeding habits. No use closing the gate, I thing this horse has bolted

They are about to release a virus to knock them off. They reckon about 80% will die.
Be ready for the smell.

Thanks Jon an interesting read.
Don't think you would want to eat them once the virus is released.
