A smart person knows what to say. A wise person knows whether to say it.

A single individual the impact is probably negligible multiple fisherman catching carp would make a difference.laneends wrote:I think it does more to maintain public awareness that they are a pest, rather than actually do anything to cull them. If the public are fully aware they are a pest then it might go a long way to prevent people deliberately populating them for sport.
So the policy is definitely a bonus for public awareness at least.

Re: Does anglers killing carp make any difference?
On the notion of carp being returned I am unsure of any difference it would make realistically but for the time being I feel it is best if they are killed and disposed of thoughtfully.
I agree with the above, currently threads that are discussing thought provoking, although contentious, content are being locked prematurely and left as they are. shutting down the conversation for those who were interested in the topic at hand and not actually removing content that isn't in line with forum rules.barra mick wrote:completly agree with ducky and boony.Boonanza wrote:I totally agree I have read a couple of threads recently that have been locked and there hasn't been any reason for it :down:ducky wrote: As for policing the thread wolly, it has been a bit over the top recently?

Re: Does anglers killing carp make any difference?
Hate the suckers. I don't fish any fresh water anymore I've caught too many in my life already and I'm over them.
Ok so trout & bass & Hazelwood Barra are a possibility but I prefer salt

We need another topic..."when to lock a topic and when to let it continue". This carp thing is boring. I haven't finished my pop corn and drinks....
