Hickory would be a prefered wood but may also be substatuded with ash or cherry 
Begin by soaking the wood over night in a lemon/water mixture.
8 parts water and 1 part lemon juice concentrate
(real squeezed...increase to 4 parts
)
This is key to taking any offencive odors and taste out of the finished dish.
Once the wood is properly seasoned lay the filets of the cleaned carp leagthwise over the top and cover with foil.
In a preheated oven (400degrees) place the wood on the center rack and leave there for 15 mins for each 1/2" of filet thickness.
Once the time has elapsed,remove the entire project to a cooling rake and allow 30 mins. to pass before removing the foil.
This allows a protective layer of moister to form between the filets and the wood.
(this ensures that none of the filet remains on the wood once removed)
Now carefully remove the foil,followed by the carp.
Place wood on platter and serve.
NOTE...***Feeding carp to your dog is not adviseable and it should be disposed of in an area where small children are not likely to be playing
