looking for some spot too carp fish and suggestions
The city where I live is in Northern Illinois and I remember one year the were repairing the damn and the released all of the water below the damn which left pools of water and the carp were all over those pools. I can remember watching those African Americans came down to the river and they had stringers of carp that hung all the way down their backs and dragged on the ground just loaded with carp. I never learned how they prepared them but boy they sure wanted them. Of course I have never learned how to cook baby back ribs either but I know that they sure tasted good same as their barbeques chicken.

Well, what is a Hoosier? Over here where we grow ... (show quote)
Well I think I know what you're talkin about. Where I grew up in Indiana we had way way more corn fields than deer ( I saw a lot of different crittters, but I never saw no deer and nobody hunted for em unless they left the state to do it) and the corn that was grown in those fields was called, imagine this, corn. The stuff we ate off the cob that grew in our garden, was called sweet corn. So, simply put, we had two kinds of corn - sweet and corn. As for a range - well, have you ever looked at a map of Indiana and compared it to a map of Texas? Ain't a whole lot of range in the land of the brickyard. Surely not enough to cube up and murder deer (which don't exist) on.
Now I know that's a whole lot of information for a Texan to absorb. As your fellow Texan Willy Nelson once remarked, you can always tell a Texan, but you can't tell him much. So ponder all that, and one more thing:
A Hoosier is someone from Indiana.
Man that was easy. Six words.
And thank you for the explanations. What it says at the bottom of my posts.
The view out my bedroom window growing up:

I’ve got to say, this has become one of the great strings of messages I’ve seen in a while. Carp to pike minnows to deer corn and sweet corn and corn corn, to Hoosiers, and Texans, and back and around, recipes, invasive species, I’ve learned all kinds of stuff. Thanks all!
