  Here's the batch I already have dried.  I have another bunch in front of the fan as we speak, you'll be getting at least double what's in the pic when your skins ship.

With all the carp I have been getting, I thought I might as well start saving the air bladders too and drying them out.  Not having made fish glue myself before, Osage Outlaw will be the guinea pig for this experiment with carp air bladders- I am excited to hear how they work for glue.

Cool.  I'm looking forward to testing them.  I have a small amount of sinew scraps I could throw in with them if I need to. 

I sent you a PM  :)

  Skip the cheese dip, they are much better with salsa.

I always wondered if you had to wash all the pee out/off first, lol. But really though, I know you have to get all the poo off of gut?

Im with Ryan, go with the salsa Clint. What does Cip know about cheese dip anyways? He might be a bit cheezy, but that doesnt qualify him!

I asked James Parker about it and he said it wasn't the same. Looking forward to seeing how it works.

Well, if anyone has the guts to try it, it would be you!

Hi Guys,  It turns out that carp air bladder glue has already been tried!   Yeah, I know,  who in their right mind would have done this already?

But there I was re-reading A. Karpowicz'   "Ottoman Turkish Bows"  and the section on making glue.  He says he has found other types of bladder ( as apposed to surgeon bladders) make as good a glue and mentions cattfish, gillbacker and croaker, but then adds that carp bladders were too greasy to bother purifying.   So let us know....Are carp airbladders really greasy?

  The bladders dried well, and it appears by both sight and touch that there is no noticeable grease.  When I took these air bladders out, there were two sections to it that were connected at the middle which gave it the appearance of a long balloon that had been twisted at the middle.  At this "twist", there was a small section that had a yellowish tissue attached to it that appeared to me to be some sort of fat, which I cut away. I then took both sections and then cut them so that they would lay flat.  I then took all of them and rinsed them several times in warm water, changing the water 3 or 4 times to help remove any traces of blood or oils/fats.

The common carp was introduced to  Britian and to North America as a food fish.  It has a long history of use for aquaculture and the table.   I believe that carp is the fish originally used for making gefilte fish.   In spite of this I've never gotten around to giving it a try.   The taste is said to vary with water conditions, and the the bones difficult to remove.
