Have you ever eaten grass carp?

Billy Joe Cross was a friend of my family for many years. We were in some hunting clubs together. He had a line of cookbooks called Cooking Wild Game and Fish Mississippi Style.

He died just a month or so ago. I'm not sure if his recipes are available online or not. He used to smoke carp all the time and serve it as appetizers, in "carp cakes" like crab cakes, in cracker dip, etc. It was delicious.

if i won, i would select RAW for the losing guy

They are eatable. Up in the midwest along the MS river they take them and clean them where the meat is scored then fried. The bones dissolve while being fried.

It's far from the best fish I've ever eaten but it's our good luck charm eating before deer hunting up in IL every year, it hasn't killed me yet.
