Is it just because they are not a pickerel, trout, or salmon and no one wants to catch a carp?

Me, I usually go to the nearby McDonald's and catch an Alaskan Pollock, but these easy fishing carp sure is tempting!

I think what you see is suckers...carp are not native to winni. Carp tend to live in rivers and backwaters of rivers. Yes, that inlet is a river but no carp there.
