I wonder if the OP realises what the average Aus thinks of Carp. Best I let him know now that it is actually an offence to put them back as they are regarded as noxious pests. Regarded as the worst introduced species even beyond Rabbits.

I think its true.
If you catch a carp in Australia, you are obligated not to return it to the water.
Ex-Pat fisherman crying in their tackle boxes destroying what we once treasured in the UK lakes.
But they are a menace to the indigenous fish.
