The case summarized: A Japanese Koikarpe was discovered in the Bingedammen in Fredrikstad about a year ago. Local boys, Bo and Waldemar, took on the mission of removing the fish, as it does not belong in Norwegian nature. Biologist Rune Aae praises the boys’ efforts, pointing out that it has become a trend to put out foreign species in Norwegian nature. The koikar was eventually grilled and eaten by the boys. The taste of the koikarpen was described as a “slightly paler salmon”. The summary is made by a Ki service from Openai. The content is quality assured by news’s ​​journalists before publishing. About a year ago, several hikers began to glimpse a slightly different fish in their local water pond in Fredrikstad. In the Binged pond, a Japanese reddish koikarpe had been lost. The local boys Bo Kolle Svensen and Waldemar Bjørnstad Karlsen found that this species has nothing in Norwegian nature to do therefore they immediately started the pursuit of the goldfish -like creature. – Bingedammen is our local pond. No one but us will be able to get rid of this one. It was our mission, says 18 -year -old Svensen. The friends hold the 2.7 kg catch at Bingedammen in Fredrikstad.

Tried everything: – Finally, what the boys went quickly understood that they had taken on a difficult and demanding assignment. – Karper is discerning, and fishing it was not easy in the usual way, says Svensen. They tried to use fishing rod and rise from both canoe and land. Finally, they tested to lay bread and corn on the water’s edge. The months passed, and the Koikarpen passed. Nothing worked. – We ended up borrowing an underwater harpoon, and then it went, says friend Karlsen. See the moment after the catch here: The friends describe some eleven cheers when the exotic fish was caught on Wednesday last week. – Then it was properly cooked in the boat. Finally we took it. It was a relief, says Svensen. – No it was fun, it was a celebration then, says Karlsen. Biologist: – Really fun to see biologist Rune Aae describes the efforts of the boys from Fredrikstad as fantastic. – It’s really fun to see that someone puts effort into this and gets it done. Removing carp from such ponds is not easy. These are hardy species. The coikar is foreign species list because it can damage natural biological diversity if it is not removed. Biologist Rune Aae is concerned about the growing trend of putting out foreign species in Norwegian nature. Photo: Odd Skjerdal / news AAE says that unfortunately it has become a trend to put out foreign species that just manages in Norwegian nature. Probably the carp in the Bingedamme derived from an aquarium where the owners got tired of the fish, according to AAE. – They have nothing in Norwegian nature to do, so it is great that the guys let the soul say in catching these. Ended on the grill Waldemar Bjørnstad Karlsen says that they considered long what to do with the fish. Despite warnings on the internet about eating koikarpe, the group of friends failed to resist the temptation. Oliver Heder Skalle, Hampus Aleksander Gustafsson, Waldemar Bjørnstad Karlsen, Jan Karol Szpak and Bo Kolle Svensen gathered for Koi team after the catch Photo: news-It had to be either food or throw, but we thought we had to try to take a taste after all the wear and tear. After hours on the water during holidays and weekends, the friends could finally invite what they called a “coilag”. Spring onions and herb butter were traded and it was placed on the grill in aluminum foil of 200 degrees. Herbs and butter were used in the cooking … Photo: Private … When the whole group of friends was invited to “Koi-layer” Photo: Private after the Bingedammen finally became free of koikarpe.

Had by all means eaten it even though I got it, says Aae. Published 09.05.2025, at. 11.59
