    Default How much per pound


    Guess I just missed it! Does anyone know how much the commercial fishermen get for the carp per pound ?

    Not exactly sure Dwight but they say they need $0.15 to make it worth their while. I wish they got $1.00 a pound for the stinking things.

    What they do get is ridiculous for the amount of work, broken equipment and hassle that the fisheries/buyers put these guys and gals thru.

    You're right about that, BC ... they may be getting $0.15/lb to net them, but the processors are getting about $0.37 or more per pound and the high end restaurants that serve them are asking .... well, take a look at what I copied out of a Journal article : "At Ward 426, the fish surfaces as “Kentucky Carp,” a $24 special browned in butter and served atop sweet potato puree with roasted fig jam and mushrooms pickled in balsamic vinegar."
    Thanks crappie flash thanked you for this post

    The best way is seasoned well with Salt, pepper, garlic, and onion. Wrap in bacon and grill until the bacon is done. Take off grill and remove the bacon. Eat bacon and discard the carp.
    If you were on trial for being a Christian would there be enough evidence to convict you??
