I caught the fish of the day yesterday as far as I was concerned! None of us even knew what kind of carp it was until a friend told me it was a mirror carp, cool looking!

Those are bad news…where did you catch it?

On the Missouri.
"Mirror carp are considered a rare variety of common carp, appearing in a small percentage of carp populations. The recessive gene responsible for their characteristic scales makes them rare."

• Recessive Gene:
  The gene for mirror carp scales is recessive, meaning two copies of the gene are needed for a fish to express the trait.

I had never seen one before, or heard of them. Pretty cool!

Did you eat it? There is a restaurant near Omaha famous for their deep fried carp. Supposedly it’s delicious but I don’t think I would dare try it.

I've shot mirror carp with my bow at New Johns.

They're relatively common in Audubon. I'm surprised it's not full of bow/fly fisherman in the Dog Days (Mon/Tue/Wed}. Otherwise:

It's just a carp.. no worse than any other common carp. It's depressing how poor the average fisherman is at fish identification

My bad…thought they were the Asian silver carp

Looks like you should brush up on all species of fish so when posted to nodak you dont upset certain people that need more crayons. You may have a pass this time but nexr time oh boy you could be in for an ass chewing. Plus we dont want to depress any more members....

Hopefully this hits and helps out with lake levels.

Looks like a photoshopicus known to be very elusive creature that becomes slightly more active in the dark. They are very shy creatures and typically will not let themselves be seen by more than 2-3 people at a time, a nick name for photoshopicus is Sasquatch of the Sea. It is rumored that corndogs are one of their favorite snacks and they can be notorious bait stealers.
