Also worked with a guy that would get excited and say they were spawning on limestone. He’d catch them,pressure cook them and can them like salmon. Said they were awesome but I’ve never tried them.

That’s what I was told my great grandmother would do with carp. Boil or pressure cook then fry like a salmon patty.

Like snagging a freight train.

I looked and Missouri has a page with information on gigging.

That's how I use white bass. Just boil till it's flaky. I use more of crab cake recipe. A croquet if you will. With fresh green onions. I do prefer them in the winter. The bass are fresher.

Amazing when you think many of the recipes (pressure cooking) probably originate as a way of preserving the fish for later when families didn't have a freezer.

Love catching them . "A fish is a fish "

I agree on the fish is a fish. If I could only catch and release fish I'd still go everyday.
