Whats up with the supposed mud streak peps warn that you need to clean before making the carp? An old man once made me some carp that was some of the best fish I have ever had. Ever since its been bad. He said get rid of the mud streak. Unfortunately he passed away shortly after. I miss that guy. Did not get a chance to find out what he was talking about, but he sure could cook any critter your brought him and turn it into the most delicious thing you could eat.

its called the mud vein

It is the dark meat that runs along the backbone. Once removed it makes the carp taste better than Walleye I think....LOL I used to smoke them an take around ten pounds to work. They would be gone in no time. I don't think is was the offer of free food either.

I had to open this because I've always been told that carp is like eating a rubber tire. I used to go watch my husband bow fish these fish, they get huge....We never ate them though.

I used to catch some pretty big carp as a kid and sell them to the Asian people down by the lake for $5.00 a pop.They loved 'em and for that reason I loved them! I wouldn't eat one myself though. Of course, there's many a critter that they would eat that I wouldn't touch,including big fat field rat,not sewer rat,big fat field rat.That's the way this one guy I knew from the Phillipines would describe them.No,day vary goood I tell youuu. :P

I know this is an old topic, but an old hillbilly method for cleaning out that mudvein was to put the carp in a big washtub filled with fresh water. Throw in a handful of fresh corn.The water will turn a little muddy from the carp feeding. Dump out the water every day & add corn until the water is clear & the fish will be mostly cleaned out.
Takes about 2-3 days.
