Default Carp ?

Son found this today in Bower Ponds and asked me to identify it. I've never seen one, but assume this is one of these Asian Carp we keep hearing about.

Prussian Carp is an invasive species and not native here - so they are not game fish .......... so ...... fish and wildlife is asking us to destroy them.

You can catch as many as you like - there is no limit - just make sure they are all dead/killed before you leave the river or lake otherwise you will get fined.
