Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Ok, hope this is a carp, it was feeding and spawning with what I know were carp but I just want to make sure before I submit it for the tournament and find out it's a goldfish!

Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Sure? Are we counting koi as carp for the tournament? Edited May 15, 2012 by Richmond Hill fisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locnar Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Looks like a Koi. I see em every day at work. And as far as I am concerned, they are just a colourful carp. Edited May 15, 2012 by Locnar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hey, if it is a koi I just realized, don't they go for a lot of money? This pond is just filled with these things, and technically I wouldn't be selling "game fish". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locnar Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Yea, big ones can go for more that $150 at my work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Now I'm seriously thinking about doing black market koi sales, I'll on it. Actually could I do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eman Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Looks like it has grill marks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammercarp Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Koi. They are common carp that have been bred for their colours. I don't believe you can sell them without a licence. You will get yourself in doodoo for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 At 150 a piece it's probably worth it, and I doughbt the mnr wants them in our waters anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bailey Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Koi and goldfish are just carp with bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Nope, emailed the MNR last night and asked about it, he said that there's absolutely no way or license. Oh well, now are we counting them as carp for the tourny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishing yoda Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 never thought this thing would survive around here, always thought a koi would get gobbled up by a muskie or a big pike being bright orange and all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Trust me, this pond doesn't have any pike or muskie, bass, or anything like that, they have the lake all to themselves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
