Battling the Asian Carp invasion

[DRINKINGWITHADOLF]

Damn things are worse than Mexicans

[supermike615]

@DRINKINGWITHADOLF Nothings worse then them.

[Snowmobile4ever]

@DRINKINGWITHADOLF I wouldnt say that yet haha

[watts1960]

grind em up for fertilizer

[gweenenvy]

don't try to convince me of eating that crap, er carp. here in illinois, we are advised to eat no more than 1 common carp a week (and in some areas not to eat any at all)because of toxic buildup in their flesh(mostly mercury). asian carp are probably worse. these asian carp eat up to 40% of their body weight a day, thats alot of bad stuff accumulating inside them

[voelkerb]

Here's an endless supply of protein staring straight into our faces, yet we don't seem to know what to do with 'em. Wiping them out would be so simple, just like it was for bison, passenger pigeons and just about every other wild life in America.

[ScottThePlayer914]

@voelkerb You realize that the carp taste terrible and are not edible right?

[voelkerb]

@ScottThePlayer914 It all depends on how they are prepared.  Smoked ones almost always taste good. There is more than one way to skin a carp. Ha ha. I am sure there are good recipes out there that makes any fish tasty. These carps are goldmine just sitting there.

[gromann]

@voelkerb ... Have you ever tried to wipe out a fish species? If it was as easy as bison or carrier pigeons, it'd be done already.

[voelkerb]

@gromann If there is enough demand and desire for certain species, we have no problem wiping them out. Just look at bluefin tuna, sharks (fins) or any other highly desirable endangered seafood species. We just need to market the carp as something tasty and high status.

[thecarfan2010]

these crap fishes shud be used for chum, to feed homeless and needy, and for petfood or for zoos! =)

[Angelsigns2012]

There are other products that can come from these fish. One being Fish emulsion which is used by organic growers. They can also be used as fish food for aquaculture. They could even go to feed animals in zoos. Not many people like eating carp.

[semaj175]

they are cheap and there sure are lots of hunry folks out there lots of homeless feeding at a local shelter would love theese

[ianator56]

[jtschid00910]

Does anybody know if the asian carp are up into minnesota yet? Just an avid bowfisherman trying to do his part in stopping the invasive species.

[TheagentXero]

@jtschid00910

[mcsnowman11]

@jtschid00910 Thats what i want to know, go to a nearby medium sized river, with a shotgun and bow-arrow and do work. God that sounds fun.

[sofleye23]

[rucool2]

inventing a shredder like, on top of a boat (like a paper shredder). Give them a good jolt. Who ever jumps in the boat is doooom!..

[jtschid00910]

@rucool2 exactly, and somehow collect all the shredded fish and fertilize our farmers fields with it.

[deepblue1776]

Bighead Carp is the main ingredient of a popular Chinese cuisine called Fish head soup. This particular type fish has never been a problem in places like Taiwan and China because people consume them regularly.

[mogilny89p]

They do the work american fish aren't willing to do. 

[Dougbama12]

@mogilny89p no they dont do anything extra they are just fucking huge

[rr28]

Why not sell them to China and help to balance the trade deficit a bit?

[huiouyang2003]

[spartan1010101]
