DoublePlopDropper Posted November 7, 2017 Report Posted November 7, 2017 hello. United States here. Carp are trash fish to the bulk of us here in the US We do not have 400lb gold fish to catch, only bottom feeding, trash fish. Drum are also pretty much junk fish and not sports fish.......Why are these 2 species, as well as sucker and buffalo, used in a game about sports fishing? Just to add versatility or for the European interests? I noticed Europeans like fishing for carp, again, the map is a US map, so thought I would point out...not the same fish, trashy, nasty, waste of bait fish Quote

DoublePlopDropper Posted November 15, 2017 Author Report Posted November 15, 2017 I would think that the article is weighted due to the population that fishes in Europe v the population that sport fishes in the US Then again, that is a person making a post on his own website and not an article on sports fishing So, let's use the US, government, statistics http://www.anglersforconservation.org/most-popular-gamefish-in-america/ Yah, carps not even on there Well, let's not be biased! https://lineandsight.com/17-popular-freshwater-game-fish/ Nop, not even in the top 17..in the world. Fanboi pages are fanboi focused guys, not reality focused. Quote

Fang08 Posted November 18 Report Posted November 18 I know I'm responded this years later, but I actually like carp which they’re a prime target species that i wanna catch, they give a great fight, same with the drums, so maybe instead of hating on these species, maybe catch one yourself Quote
