    If you have a high def tv antenna you may be able to just switch over to that and get the signal. That's what I do for local channels.

    WOW !

    Man that was a lot of carp. From the way they talked on the show it doesn't even scratch the surface with this species of fish. Hats off to KDFWR and the fisherman. Seems like a wonderful ideal and hope they keep it up and other states follow.

    Yes, the show was both encouraging and discouraging at the same time. It was discouraged to see just how severe the problem is, and the realization that fishing at KY Lake could end up dying. I was encouraged that the state is being proactive and trying to do something to prevent that from happening.

    Personally I had very little knowledge about commercial fishing in that waterway. I have to say I was surprised at how small all the boats and their operations were. Not what I had expected to see.

    Does anyone know what type of fish the commercial fisherman on Kentucky Lake normally fish for?

    Catfish and Buffalo.

    There is a fish market at the top of the lakes.

    I actually talked to a commercial fisherman last fall for nearly an hour on south barkley. TOUGH, TOUGH work. It was a great talk with a local making a living on my favorite lakes.

    Later,

    Asian Carp will be the death of Bass fishing in every lake and river that they are in. There was a report of a 95 pounder caught in Missouri. Can you imagine a fish that eats nothing but plankton at 95 pounds? How much plankton did that 1 fish take that shad could have eaten? Pretty easy formula, plankton goes away, shad go away, Bass go away.

    Great show. It's on tomorrow too.

    Hats off to the KDFW fisheries director for coming up with the idea.
