My son and I saw a large school of 6-8" fish in the KY River (pool 3 bewteen Monterey and Frankfort) feeding on the surface on Saturday. They were much bigger than the shad. I could see that they had a forked tail and were silver.

Wondering if they were some of the exotic invasive carp showing up in other big river systems? Anybody know if they have been reported in the KY River? I have heard they have been found in abundance in the tailwaters of KY/Barkley.
