Here in the Great North we make a tasty fermented Carp Slurry with garlic, a blender, bud light and carp to taste. Add hops and anchovie paste, bury in the ground for a few weeks and serve in a punch bowl with ice during superbowl season.

However, at this size, it would be probably best suitable for smoking

That fish looks pregnant, isn't it?
Letting behind any ethics discussion, are the eggs any good to eat? A classic of italian cuisine is spaghetti with tuna eggs, and also with mullet eggs which taste even better. One of my clubmates told me something about carp egg omelette...
and...yes, taste me with mullet eggs! ;-)

That's the sort of thing that keeps me south! However, whenever you decide to broil a moose, you will let me know, won't you?

Oldsarge is right: it's a silurus glanis : a sort of giant catfish living in Europe.
You wont' believe it, but I have speared two of those about 70 kg each in a river in Italy last year. But it was not about sports: it was an environmental operation because those fish are exterminating every other species in small rivers and ponds. Local authorities asked courtesy to the spearfishing clubs of the region to dive in the river and kill as many as we could, to keep their number under an acceptable rate. (spearfishing in rivers is normally forbidden in my country: this was an exception for that special mission).
It was no fun: they dont' move at all. You just get there, stone them in the head with a pneumatic and the game is over.
