One of several Wyatt busted today with his old Sage recurve... I managed to catch a nice eater channel cat while waiting.

What do people do with prairie dogs, barn rats , gopher, moles, ground hogs, ECT..! Lol!

We actually eat a few, but a good deal go as bait or lure for fishing and trapping, the rest make fertilizer.
The State will kill them by the thousands though if they infest a State lake. They drain her dry, tell people about a fish grab, and what people take is all that's saved. Carp are never taken or at least dang few. The history on them tells us they are foreign invaders from Europe and Asia. They are an invasive fish, that greatly harm our natural fish fauna. So if the State kills thousands and lets them rot, im thinking bait, lure, and fertilizer aint so bad. I hear some places take them for making animal foods if they are fresh.

What to do with Carp? Either bake them using the pine board method (where after baking you eat the board) or throw them up on dry land and let the critters have them!
On another note; tonight is opening of bullfrog season, Mark and I had plans to go but his mother in law was put in hospital.

That would be awesome! In Kansas we have to attach line to the arrow.

I have looked through the hunting guide but don't see anything requiring that in our state. Mark & I visited a few ponds last night but didn't find but a few in them, were going too have to seek a new place. I got to see the Lazer Carp bow in action. It has not only a spool and line but also has a lazer pointer like you would use on a pistol, squeeze the riser and it puts a lazer dot on your intended target. He put the red dot on the frog and...
