    Box of washing powder will kill them ........ And every thing else in your dam ....... So not a good option.

    They cleared them out of lake opuawahi with a set net and a haul net.

    If you want to fish them, tinned corn on a hook will sort them right out.

    That is rather discriminatory Pengy. Why not invite all of us? My complaint is in the mail to dame Susan. Ha ha ha ha

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Nothing wrong with fried carp
    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.

    How big are they?

    Rotenone work's well on anything with gills , I think DOC used it before too. If used early winter the damage can be minimized to other species but do some of research before poisoning anything or ask DOC for advice.

    Just for the record, and cos I like splitting hairs. Koi means Carp. So by calling them Koi carp you are saying Carp Carp

    If you want to eat them, it's best to keep them in a tank of clean water with no food for a few days. This gets the grassy weedy shit out of their systems, so they don't taste like mud.

    They taste like cardboard soaked in Fisholene.Koi that is,Grass carp not soaked.
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out
