Cyprinus carpio
The carp was introduced to North America from Europe. Sometimes specimens have only a few large scales ("mirror carp") or none at all ("leather carp"). This fish frequents the shallow warm waters of lakes and streams even when somewhat muddy or polluted. It feeds on insect larvae, crustaceans, snails, and plants. The carp spawns in vegetated shallows in June and July. One 8 kg specimen had 2,300,000 eggs. The angling record in North America is 105 cm and 25 kg. The world record is 38 kg. It is usually caught still-fishing on doughballs, potatoes, or worms.
