On our village limit sign, we boast of being the "Carp Capitol of the World". We host tournaments all the time. Two years ago we hosted the World Championship, and 22 countries were represented. These people LOVE their carp! After catching and weighing one, prior to releasing it, they actually get out a first aid kit and patch up their lip! I'm not sure how many of them know that the North American Bowfishing Championship was held the following week. After weighing their catch, the fish are thrown in a big pit for a mass burial!
What a coincidence! I live about 7 miles North of Buckeye Lake, Ohio - home of the (fictional, but the T-Shirts are awesome) annual Kiss-A-Carp Pro-Am Surf Classic!
