Also beware of mosquitos.
That is likely to happen.
Use BT dunks.


That will keep mosquitos out of standing water?

Put in some goldfish. Theyre organic eat mossies, and you can always eat
them when they grow big enough.


But carp are so bony! ;-)

I'd personally vote for bass or crappie minnows!

Oh, my god.

Sashimi is a Japanese delicacy primarily consisting of very fresh raw
seafood, sliced into thin pieces . . .
A reputed motivation for serving wasabi with sashimi (and also gari,
pickled ginger), besides its flavor, is killing harmful bacteria and
parasites that could be present in raw seafood.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sashimi

I was going to have breakfast, now I have to wait for the room to
stop spinning:-P

Sorry. ;-)

While I like cooked fish, sometimes I'm just in the mood for really
"fresh" food...

Steak Tartar is the most obvious one, but there are others using thinly
sliced raw beef in a salad, but I can't remember what it's called. The
trick to making it really good is using really _lean_ beef as, to me,
raw beef fat is nasty. :-P

Sometimes I just crave raw beef. I probably need the iron. It's a girl
thing.

I generally use Top round:

Dipped in a bit of soy sauce and/or raw egg yolk. ;-d

Trout are also a good alternative, but it rooly depends on the size of
the tank.
Mossies are not really problem. Just put in some fly screens mesh (in
the tank stoopid) not in the windows.
Really some people have no imagination, and neither have they got a
sense of humus...er humour? you git my vote omelet. Bacon with that?

Indeed... Gotta fry the fish in bacon grease. ;-d

A little veggie or mineral oil on top of the water kills skeeter larvae
too.

Yup, and kerosene works even better. Wonder what it does to the plants
though.

That is why I suggested a neutral oil. g

All it does is prevent them from breathing so they suffocate.

Oh dear me......carp is our absolutlyist favoritist fish for plate!!

Bony yes, *but* skinned and properly scored and lightly dusted and
scores lightly packed with flour/cornmeal and deep fried.....oh my.

The scoring of the flesh is *the* key to proper carp. Scoring, for
those who aren't familiar, is running your *very* sharp knife from
backbone down perpendiculary to the bellyside, cutting thru all the
tiny bones, but not the ribs, or cutting clear thru the fish. From
head to tail. You score as closely as possible, no more than 1/8 in
apart. You can feel all the little hairbones being cut. Deep frying
then reduces the tiny bones to nothing, though one still must exercise
the usual caution when eating fish.

Oh lordy, Charlie and Mrs. Charlie are looking forward to fresh carp,
coleslaw and fried taters and cornbread....just your mention of carp
has me salivating like Pavlov's pup......

Charlie


Once again my dad would have me out on the swamp ice. Break a hole and
shoot carp that came for air. 1955
