I just wanted to point something out as I think it is kind of funny. I keep reading and seeing the word "Smell" used for the reason people don't eat carp.....yet we will eat any other fish in the same water doing about the same thing. I would say CAT Fish look and smell just as bad as a carp. I'm betting it's more on how we are raised and what we hear then what we truly know. I myself have never tried carp but would give it a shot!!!! And in my younger days I would even tell people you don't eat carp because they taste bad and are TRASH FISH. Then I grew up a little traveled a bit and realized I had no idea if it was good or bad! UGLY? YES :-)
Does anyone agree with that? I grew up hearing "Trash fish" "Trash fish"
