Carp Trap

Postby Grandpa Rex on Tue Feb 14, 2012 11:15 am

Here is a proposal to shoot Aisian Carp with a shotgun. Sounds like fun!

Just a bit dangerous...but quite a challenge!

I don't know why they don't just drive up and down these parts of the river with nets hanging over the sides, letting them hop right in. I assume these fish taste horrible or they probably would have been fished out before they were a problem.

I personally have been wanting to go there and test my trap shooting skills bow style. I bow fish boring old common carp annually, but that looks way more fun.

Even strapped to a post at the bow with a baseball bat would give you a workout.

Too bad whatever is tried, you will never do more than control the invasion.

I believe this is the answer to the carp invasion.

It seems that a 'carp-cup' would be a good addition to the equipment list.
