>>11688982018 I’m becoming a carp fisherman. Fuck it
My home lake has always had carp. Shit loads of them too. Some so big I’d be confident a small child could ride on them. Granted I never was able to experience the lake pre- carp introduction but I’ve never heard a single fisherman in my entire life make a notion that the carp were affecting the other species populations. Now does that mean that they aren’t in some way actually affecting it? Who knows. All I do know is there is more than abundant populations of every species in that lake. Except maybe sturgeon due to their autistic spawning. If anything I’d say the introduction of gobies has been a far greater nuscence than the mighty carp
