darkrider Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I'm pretty sure I got what it takes. and I'm actually not to bad with a sword, but with my luck I'd end up slicing my frickin leg off. I'm sure most of you know about the asian carp that are taking over the missisipi and other rivers. they like the boat motors and jump out of the water at them. They've actually even killed some people. I think the only thing keeping them out of the great lakes is the electricity jolts in front of the damn this vid is awesome!

Exactly what Charger said. While it is a fun video, the big head carp is actually a catastrophe waiting to happen - and it will. Scratch that, it already has. You literally need 100,000 bowhunters out there for 3 months slaughtering all of them as best as they can, including nets and electrocution. But, in the end it almost has to be a hopeless operation. Really sad state of affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beebop Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 We could always eat 'em. They might be good with kudzu salad. To Louisiana-based chef Philippe Parola, the meat is "between scallops and crab meat." He has devised his own technique to debone the fish and has a plan to rebrand them as "silverfin" and popularize them as a low-cost, healthy, pre-cooked, flavored product for picky American consumers.

firebird77clone Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 These basts are taking over the waterways so quickly because they are 'filter' feeders. They strain water through their gills, taking everything plankton size and larger. This pretty much depletes the food chain for the other fish species. It is going to be quite a problem. Good news is, they are tasty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
