Carp

Carp are a large group of oily freshwater fish native to Asia that can be fished, avalaible in the Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties expansion pack.

Carp can be found in Ceylon and sometimes the Yellow River map during the flood. Carp are found swimming alongside Humpback whales and Molas in Ceylon and occasionally Catfish in the Yellow River floods. Just like the other fish, Carp have 100 hitpoints and yield 500 food.
