Disposal of carp?

Free fertilizer for the garden

don't some crazy people smoke em? I know dem people out in da swamp woulda ate em

Dig a whole and barry them.

burn them, that's what I did with the nine carp I got in my neighborhood, biggest was 10 pounds.

why is everyone so wasteful, you could feed a few hmongs with them ol carpies

carp are meant to be garden fertalizer or cat food. I knew soneone who used catfish as catfood.

Use them to raise maggots which you can use for panfish bait!

 Someone earlier on here said they brought them to the Zoo to feed the animals. Don't know where you are located, but that is a nearly free option, only costs you gas.

I talked to a guy who knows his stuff and he said carp are good eating,   I have never tried one.

What kind a beverage to you consume when you shoot coots?

always fun to dump them in a hidden spot near a busy road, you know people are gonna be smelling them for a few weeks after that!

Freeze them then toss them in the garbage on pick up day,bury them in the garden for fertilizer, clean,brine and smoke them good eating, pickle them as well!

When I was on the farm, we would dig a trench and bury them next to the tomatos and peppers. The next year mom would put her plants on top of the trench. Biggest risk to that now is the coyotes and coons are so thick that they come in and dig them out!

Per Game & Fish:

Dispose of Rough Fish Properly

Early May is an excellent time to pursue bowfishing for carp and other nongame fish, but participants need to make plans for proper fish disposal.

Since the bowfishing season opened May 1, the State Game and Fish Department has received several reports of fish left to rot along shorelines in several areas of the state.

“You can take the fish home and eat them, put them in your garbage, or bury them someplace where you have permission,” says Chief Game Warden Robert Timian, “but it’s not legal to put dead fish back in the water or leave them on shore.”

Game wardens and other law enforcement officers have the authority to issue citations for littering to those who do not dispose of their fish properly, Timian said. The minimum fine for littering is $100.

“While it’s nice that people take advantage of this recreational opportunity, they also need to have a plan for proper disposal of dead fish,” Timian said.

Ironically, here's a news release by the NDGF just today.
