On the Illinois River there were some guys making a good living off catching the Asian carp and selling them to (wonderful symmetry) Asian restaurants in Chicago. Oddly, something is killing the carp in the Illinois and Missouri rivers. One thought is that there are so many, they are not getting enough to eat which leads to poor reproduction. Whatever the reason, the Ilinois river guys are out of business. The best carp cooking technique I know of is to wrap the fish in a wet newspaper and put it in the dishwasher along with a little water in the bottom of the dishwasher. Then put it through a 'dry' cycle. The heat cooks the fish, the dishwasher keeps the moisture in. The smell in the dishwasher is removed by doing a wash cycle. Never tried it myself. Never will. This Slovak-American prefers duck.
