I remember seeing a documentation on these fish awhile back.

Ya they have Bow hunting competitions for these fish where they just cruise around waiting for the fish to get air born and then harpoon them with arrows with line attached to reels which are afixed to their bows! Looks like a ton of fun to me! biggrin

A ton of fun until one hits you in the head, which can also happen. lol

There was a youtube that had 3 guys standing on the back of a small boat, each with a frying pan in hand. Eventually one of them did have about a 10 pounder land right in the middle of the frying pan. And yes, there appeared to be beer involved.

Beer and carp are like a bird to flight! smile

And yes I have seen these lousy fish hit "anglers" right in the head.Beer and this type of fishing = hilarious which means that much more fun doing it!! Personally I would love to try bow hunting for this evassive species!
