Carp diet: Carp belongs to the benthic omnivorous fish, meat and vegetarian food. The bait spectrum is extensive, the muzzle bone is developed, often arching mud feeding. Carp is a low-grade thermophile, body temperature changes with the water temperature changes, do not have to rely on the consumption of energy to maintain a constant body temperature, so the total amount of bait intake is not large.

At the same time, carp and most freshwater fish belong to the stomachless species, and the intestinal tract is short, fast metabolism, so the feeding habits for less eat hard food. The carp's digestive function is very much related to the water temperature, and the seasonality of feeding is very strong.

Fishing bait: Early spring, late fall fishing carp, to earthworms, river shrimp and other animal bait. In summer and early fall fishing, you should use face bait and bad food.

Carp Appearance Characteristics: Carp are characterized by the presence of pharyngeal teeth in the fish's throat. The ventral portion of the last pair of gill arcs is particularly robust and becomes the hypopharyngeal bone. The muzzle is absent or only a pair of muzzle whiskers, with horny pharyngeal grinding, the body is often covered with tile-like rounded scales, and no blubbery fins.

Only one unbranched fin anterior to the even fin, one to four rows of hypopharyngeal teeth, and less than 30 dorsal fin branches. Most species have only one dorsal fin, the ventral fin is ventral and distinctly separated from the anal fin, and the caudal fin is forked; the body is covered with rounded scales.
