I bury about 80 or so carp a year in my garden, and the veggies grow crazy good.

I tried bringing some suckers home one year for the garden, and every racoon in the area came running.  I should have sat out that first night with my bow at the ready.

Canned or smoked, at the price of food nowadays all that protein would shave a lot of $ off the grocery bill...    :biglaugh:

I agree with Ron...canned up and made into patties carp are "good eats".

Just raw pack chunks of fish (small bones left in)into quart jars...press down and leave 1/2" space at top...1/2 tsp. salt (optional)...don't add water (makes it's own juice)

Medium snug down lids and rings...process at 12 pounds pressure for 90 minutes. Let cool.

Drain 1 qt. fish...mix in 2 eggs / 1 pkg. hand crushed saltine crackers / some fine diced onions.
Brown in greased fry pan over med / high flame.

Enjoy!

dont think i can handle eating any kind of carp. i have tried gar, fried, it was ok but not the best.

brings back memories of the Oak Plank and horse Manure receipe for baking carp!  :)

Did know some folks that kept them live ina  spring house like snapping turtles for a week or so to clean the mud taste out and they liked them...   :eek:    "[dntthnk]"

Post by: raghorns on April 11, 2011, 12:04:00 PM
Carbonkiller, I don't like gar either...but the carp taste like canned salmon patties.

Doc Nock, I think the oak plank gives the horse manure a funny taste. lol
Only use carp or buffalo when the water is still real cold...makes all the difference.

Gar are some of my favorites especially those gator gar in the 4-6ft length.
Come on down to Guntersville that weekend, I will be there from Thursday evening till Sun, always love to meet some fellow trad gangers.  We will be staying at the Day's Inn in Guntersville and will be at the Lurleen B. Wallace pavilion on Fri, sat and sunday.

yeah gar are by far my favorite fish to shoot...doesnt matter if its big spotted gar or big longnose....and one day i hope to chase some gator gar.
