The high temperature for today in Walker, Minnesota (the home of the Eelprout Festival) will be +5F today and then plunge to -12F overnight. And it gets worse. Plus snow. None of this may impress Lars, but it certainly got *my* attention. LOL > > Eat the Redwood board. Serves 4 > I've tried redwood... it's not as tasty as you'd think. If you are the adventurous sort (and I'm thinking that all Paddlewisers are the adventurous sort) you can join Carp USA which is a national organization devoted to catching carp. Membership is free. http://www.carp-usa.info/ Once you've caught your carp you really can eat it. Here ( http://www.bassonhook.com/fishforfood/carprecipes.html ) are some yummy recipes. Seriously. In fact, googling for "carp recipe" elicits a whole plethora of sites. So, in short, there is no reason to put up with carp. All we need to do is change our way of thinking about them.
