    Carp used (might still be) considered a delicacy in China. They
    breed 'em on purpose over there.
    The reason the carp has a bad rep in the US is because it can survive
    in  low oxygen atrophied bodies of water which tend to be the most
    polluted.

|     We've got lotsa carp here in the Kennebec R. in Augusta...I don't
    think anyone fishes for 'em though...not on purpose...I read that
    they were brought over from Europe in the 1800's and stocked in
    15 of the 16 counties in Maine...they only caught on good in the
    Kennebec...must have been a food fish in the old country ?  They
    look like a big gold fish.80 8| 80 8|
