Unfortunately, the only thing that can control carp with a 99% chance of working is Rotenone. Nothing that swims in Northern waters will get large enough to eat an adult carp. Bowfishing, netting, etc., all will help reduce their numbers, but nothing beats killing and starting over.

Even if you can kill the carp, you have to find out how they got in there in the first place and make sure that it won't happen again, or else the BOW will revert back to what it is today.
