The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

My lovely wife asked me to use my profound internet skills and look up a recipe for baked fish,,,,

BAKED STUFFED CARP
1.) 3 lbs. carp, dressed for baking STUFFING
2.) 4 cups bread crumbs
3.) 3 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
4.) 3/4 cup celery, finely chopped
5.) 4 slices bacon, salt pork, or fat
6.) 6 tablespoons melted butter
7.) 3/4 teaspoon salt
8.) 1/8 teaspoon pepper
9.) 1 teaspoon sage

Cook the celery and onions for a few minutes in butter. Mix the other ingredients, and add to butter mixture. Moisten fish and salt it lightly inside and out. Stuff with dressing and tie shut to hold in dressing. Place in pre-heated oven and bake at 375F for one hour.

Sounds somewhat like the recipe used in Germany...it was actually pretty good but then again they used carp from very clean water and it was preceeded by a healthy amount of spirits.

No thanks. I'm a catch and release kind of guy.

detail. What fly didja catch em on?

If you take that same receipt and cook that carp on a cedar board you’ll have yourself a mighty fine meal. All you need to do is when you’re done baking throw out the carp and eat the board. An oldie, I know, but just seemed appropriate…

Happy Holidays,

Pete

and a Merry Holiday Season to you as well

I remember when I was a kid back in the midwest, we used to catch carp in the Missouri River and eat them. The even served it up in restaurants. Pretty good if cooked right. So what time is dinner Carpy?
