Kinda funny if you ask me.
Fishermen pay $$$$$$$$$ to go catch "sportfish" they will never eat and release. Bonefish, trout, Bass, tarpon, barracuda, sailfish.... the list is long.
So catman enjoys the challenge of tricking a carp into taking a bait, fighting them on light tackle, and releasing them.
I Don't see the problem.
Wait you don't eat trout? or bass? well I usually try to catch what I will eat which is why I go after catfish, bass, crappie, bream, and drum. Occasionally a carp or gar will snag my line and I enjoy the fight but I throw the carp and gar back. When I can though I'll go to Arkansas to the little Red and eat the crap out of trout.

Before anyone cracks a joke, I don't literally mean eat the crap out of them, I mean eat a lot of them!

I eat fish but I let most of them go.
That was the point. People rag on catman for catching carp which in their mind is a trash fish. Yet, they spend lots of time and money catching game fish that are just as often released.
So whats the difference? Catch and release a 15lb carp, catch and release a 5 lb bass. Either way you spent time on the water, had a fight, and released a fish to fight again.

^ that is what sport fishing is about, or should be about... None of this trash fish vs game fish crap, if you don't want to catch a certain fish then that's fine but doesn't make it trash. Only thing I've caught that I sometimes consider trash is a turtle because it's not a fish, most of them don't fight hard, and I almost always lose or break my hook on them.

well then crap is the smartest and hardest fighting fish I have caught, not bad for a big turd. I will keep fishing for them while you keep fishing for smallmouth. Speaking of which, I may go wading on Wednesday for smallies myself, and then in the evening set up a lawn chair, a camp fire, and 3 or 4 lines with corn and fish the night for carp. It is very relaxing after a day of wading and casting soft plastics over and over again.
