Oh what to do when the carp are not feeding during a recent fishing trip?
Search for Fairy villages
The carp did wake up eventually 34lb 10oz Common Carp
Nice set...that fish is a monster...lol.
Love the village. My dad use to bring home carp and buffalo like this in his nets.
That is one beautiful common carp Marc. Congratz
and I like your fairy village as well :)
I've never seen fairy villages before - very cool! Was the carp edible or a "catch and release"?
Nice photos of the fairy villages. I've never seen them before. Nice size carp. Great catch.
What do you do with the carp?
Where I live (in Canada) it seems that only Asian people eat carp.

Not just in Canada. Where I grew up in the 50's and 60's in upstate NY the common joke for cooking carp was to put them on a plank in front of an open fire. When cooked to your satisfaction throw the carp away and eat the plank.

Have it stuffed and hang it near the fishing poles.
Carp are "bottom feeders", but so are catfish, if I'm not mistaken.
