Yeah they love carp fishing over in Europe, lots of huge ones come out of France.  I got grass carp (imported from Germany) in my lake and they'll only hit bread or a green wooly booger.  I've caught multiple fish over 10, my best being a 47 lber taken on a piece of bread floating on top at night

and actually i forgot to mention... like the biggest smallmouth on the hotdog.... i landed my biggest largemouth while fishing for catfish with a piece of cut bluegill... 10 lber, wasn't a cat, but I ain't complainin

Let's heat things up a bit:  for those who like carp, do you object to those who use bow and arrow to catch them?

I've got 7 grass carp in my small pond. I hooked 3 of em one day on bread using an old 2 1/2' rod and zebco 33 bream fishing. straightened my hooks out when they got to the bank and saw me. They never have bit the bread since. They're bout leg length, would like to land one and weight it. Mine are extremely spooky, how in the world do u tame them? I feed my bluegill everyday and the carp eat it like crazy but they spook alot when they see me...aggrevates me lol.
