Depends on the species. Grass carp are very good eating. Common carp from a clear running stream is also good when canned and made into fish patties like we do with salmon.
Buffalo fish are better than carp and also need to be taken from clear running water to not have a muddy taste. Buffalo also make good fish patties. Eat with generous drops of lemon juice and Louisiana hot sauce.
In South Dallas carp are known as Bugle Mouth bass or Trinity River Salmon.

Wait for the ror tip to start bobbing up and down, you will see them nibbling on it seeing if they want to take it, when the tip of the rods really bends, set the hook. Caught a ton of carp like this as a young man, but better tie the rod to the railing or they will take it in a heartbeat. Seen it too many times. Fun times!
Chum with cream style corn and fish with whole kernel corn works great. Right now carp are spawning against the banks most places around here. Great fun catching these beasts. A 20-25 lb carp is the toughest fight you will ever have on light tackle. They just keep on pulling.
