wildcatcreek Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Let me re-phrase that. That video was some good stuff. The fact that they're infesting our waterways sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so haaad Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Bad news - The WI DNR is reporting the silver "flying" carp were just discovered in the backwaters near LaCrosse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunrevir Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Well, we may have to take up bowfishing and whack some of those flying fish. It is pretty sad to see but they have had ample warning with other exotics being caught by the commercial fishermen in years past. Will be interesting to see what it does to the sport fishery as well as the pleasure boating. Sounds like it is pretty bad down in Illinois.Tunrevir~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erickol Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 If we are lucky commercial fisherman might be able to make the tiniest dent. I gotta think that almost all fish are going to be impacted negatively, clams..... paddlefish. geez, all the folks on this site could get bows and shoot away, but if they do get infested like in some other parts of the country, all those arrows will make little impact. It would be great if the suckers couldn't handle the cold winters. If that's the case, that might be our saving grace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesnowtaWild Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 ^ They actually PREFER colder waters, so we are actually doomed.We can definitely kiss the Paddlefish goodbye, and they will take over the major populations of the rivers we all love to fish. I have no problems with Common Carp in the river, but these are the worst. Even more ironic, is that they were brought here in the 70's by commercial Catfish farmers to keep their ponds clean.

pinkfloyd4ever Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 need to genetically engineer an asian carp eating machine, like huge northers/muskies. I love boating down the mississippi in mpls, but don't want to be dodging those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
