Asian carp, also known as SiverCarp was introduced by Catfish farmers in the southern US.Southerners introduced these species to their ponds decades ago, hoping they’d filter out unwanted algea. This all worked fine until the ponds breached during flooding in the early 1990s and the carp found their way into rivers that feed into the Mississippi. Then they found their way into the Mississippi and started working their way north, toward the Great Lakes
Actually, Asian Carp is considered a delicacy if you get over their bony nature and if properly prepared. Sauteing it with some ginger and you have a delicious and healthy alternative to red meat and salmon.
When silver carp get excited and jump, they also start bleeding out through their gills. In theory, if you kept pissing them off, they would keep bleeding, and eventually their tissue would become hypoxic, then they would die. Would be an easy way to kill tons of them and get them out of our waters.
Once in awhile I see something like this that genuinely makes me happy. Nature is so wonderful. Keep wasting resources and and beating your dimwitted heads into the wall. This is priceless. Freedom is under threat for jet-ski manufacturers, something must be done. I hear they aim for people with tattoos and beer guts.
its the electromagnetic disturbaces that attract the fish and cause them 2 freak out yet the only thing that the great lakes hav 2 protect themselves is an electrick fence so does anyone else hear think this is a disaster waiting 2 happen sure it may kill some of them but ther still gonna b basshing ther heads against it 1 by 1 and 4 each karp that does die thers another 1 2 replace it.and u saw the damage that they can do.
If it hits a jetskier? I thought these things would only jump like that when an aluminum boat drives by. And every video I've seen, it's been an aluminum boat. Not anything fiberglass...
@MahaloMoFo I've read that it's the sound of the motor... or it might be the electromagnetic disturbance cause by the engine. Some fish, if not all, have an electromagnetic sense that we don't have.
Is there a reason why people are not eating them? Seem like fishermen would be happy about so many fish just jumping into their boats. What am I missing here?
@Doromir They're a bony fish as well. You can't really get a fillet off of them. They also taste worse than native fish because they "sift mud". Not bad in taste, but who's going to buy them to eat when they can buy something that tastes good?
There is so much food in the US that most people very picky and don't eat just any fish. When I am fishing I throw back the fish I caught because none of my friends want them. However, people would buy the same type of fish that I caught from the supermarket because they are already cleaned and ready to cook.
But if you release an Asian Carp into the wild it will bring good luck! I heard of one guy who released a whole livewell full and won the lottery the next week!
Well, they were saying in the video there's a small market for these fish, just not enough for big fisheries to get in the mix and go after em.
They also said the carp is here to stay, so if you want to help out, buy a asian carp and eat it, I guess. That way more fishermen will be happy to catch em and sell em to you.
Helps the economy. Helps the carp problem. Especially if experts think they aren't going away.
think this all the way through a 100 pond fish hitting you , your spouse, or children in the head a fatal problem the fish you are seeing are young, Oh and lets not forget how this effects the ecosystem.
@leeroyjenkinsii Wow. How ignorant are you? No, they really are not the best to eat, and besides the inherent dangers they pose to humans while still in the water (did you even watch the video...?), they themselves eat up ALL of the food sources that the GOOD fish need to thrive, killing those species off and potentially putting hundreds of thousands of local fisherman out of jobs, plus cutting down on our food supply. Do your research, especially before resorting to calling names.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
LMAO @naikouteki!! So we heave GOOD fish and BAD fish? Looks to me like we have MORE fish. It's just that we aren't use to the type. So now we have so MANY fish that all we have to do is put nets on our boats as we go down the river and we'll be full. I tell you what, take a homeless group to the river and at least they won't have to worry about hunger. Buncha cry babies worried about large mouth bass fishing. Give me a break. Go find a REAL problem in the world. Like I said marketing!
The electrical current is an annoyance to the fish, it doesn't kill them. It just gives them enough of a shock to keep them from passing through the area
Carp are actually not a good fish to eat. they seem to attract disease and they apparently taste aweful. so now u can see why there are still so many of them....normally we would jus teat them all and complain how there arent eenough.
The introduction of the gene "Daughterless" produces carp that sire only male offspring, They subsequently only sire males, in a doubling spread throughout the population, resulting in a crash extinction of that interbreeding population. [Google: "Plot to kill the Carp"; "Daughterless * Gene"; "Segregation disorder"; "Genes That Violate Mendel's Rules"]
In Oregon the squawfish eat the salmon smolts and we control them by offering a sportfishing bounty. It has made a big impact in the number of them. Carp are so easy to catch that if yo offered a bounty of $1 each you would have 1000's of weekend sportsmen gunning for them.
We have also taken the radical step of steriizing lakes to rid them of invasive species, the poison kill all the fish. Some genetic biologist needs to invent a carp specific poison.
