Beats Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 it's too bad the carp around here can't learn to jump out of the water and perhaps land in someone's garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabluz Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 I don't doubt in the least that the Great Lakes will get invaded by Asian carp. I have never heard of anyone winning a battle against invading species. N.America has been invaded by all sorts of animals and plants...examples; cows, horses, starlings, sparrows, crows, pheasant, brown trout, various species of salmon in the Great Lakes, african bees, zebra mussels and thousands of other examples. We still play dangerously by introducing species into new habitat. One good example is the fact that Atlantic salmon are being reared in pens on the West Coast. Why something like this has been allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvio Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Was at tight lines today and one of the guys in the store was telling us they were diving at the mouth of the humber when he spotted an Asian carp. He said he has gone down to were ever they are (cant remember) and has seen them being electro shocked so he said he knew what he was looking at. Just what I heard hope its not true.

qaz Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 There is only one access point between the Mississippi river system and the Great lakes but it's there. A commecial canal.. Sounds like they are already on the losing end of this one.. The up side could be the fact that Pike/Musky only grow as large as their prey allow them to.. IE 2 inch prey equals small pike...54 inch asian carp equals....I don't know but I think I will not be swimming off the beaches in a few years. I don't understand why the cat fish have not had a bigger impact on them.. Maybe the larger catfish species live too far south or the carp are too fast swimmers and grow too fast to stay in the right size to be prey.
