These carp are a terrible threat, and I don't think we're paying enough attention to them. By "we" I mean the fishing community as a whole. The KDFWR site (thanks for the link) says that we can help control them by taking measures to guard against introducing them into fisheries. OK, great, so don't dump your baitfish into the lake, we all know that, but what can we do to actively get rid of them? They've tried different things on the Illinois River, and haven't had much luck. Miles of that river have virtually no other fish in it. Is our beloved Kentucky River next?
