Abstract:
Carp were introduced in the country in 1831, primarily as a food fish. A great stocking program followed that reached its heyday in the 1880s, when 260,000 carp were distributed in 298 of the 301 United States Congressional Districts. Davies discusses how to fish for carp and why this fish has fallen into disfavor.
