ANybody know what you are supposed to do with your carp after you go out and stick a pile of them? I know the zoo takes them sometimes but what about the other times? Any ideas? Thanks!

 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.

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!

In my lifetime I have seen fence row to fence row farming and the return of CRP and game to the landscape.Now we face again the prosepect of fence row to fence row again! Sportsman are our own worst enemy in that we fail to look forward and focus to much on the now!

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.
