great report and pics. I've been out to mead a couple times to soak corn but had no luck (once at Boulder Marina on the bank to the north and once off the point at Hemingway Marina). Both times no hits.
I actually am seeking to harvest Carp. It's good meat if
you trim the dark lateral meat away and soak it overnight in salt water in the fridge. The flesh becomes white. The meat below the ribs and the tail sections can be separated from the fillet and are boneless. They can be fried golden brown and are very good.
As far as the rest......bones!!!!! Have been canning quite a bit of Elk from this past year's hunt and stumbled upon
a carp canning method. It sounds like it might work. Here

maybe I'll try corn and garlic too. the two times I went I
just used corn right out of the can......chumming and on the hook.
