He's always boasting. He's such a bighead!
Bighead and silver carp are the most important fish, worldwide, in terms of total aquaculture production.
The main species with which the lake is stocked are the silver carp and the bighead carp.
Bighead carp flesh does share one unfortunate similarity with common carp flesh - both have intramuscular bones within the filet.
Some freshwater species commonly hunted include common carp, grass carp, bighead carp, alligator gar, and paddlefish.
During the years 1962 to 1965, other various carp species (bighead, black, silver, grass, common, and crucian carp) were introduced into the lake.
This behavior has sometimes also been attributed to the very similar bighead carp, but this is uncommon.
The bighead carp differs from the silver carp in its behavior (it does not leap from the water when startled) and also in its diet.
The bighead carp has a tremendous growth rate, making it a lucrative aquaculture fish.
