The first weekend in August over 10,000 Asian Carp were removed from the Illinois River. The atmosphere was pure Mardi Gras as costumed fisherman pulled fish from the river using nets only.

Keep importing species from other countries then wonder why our country is suffering. Each person that has a say in importing Asian carp needs one up their backside until it finds its own way out. Could be difficult with a head up there already.
