Sisco Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Unfortunately it was the Army Corps of Engineers who were doing most the foot dragging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEJL Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I really liked that the homeless shelters and food banks turned down the free carp from net dragging. How exactly do you turn down free food for one of those places? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) I am actually involved in the carp issue. They will make it to Michigan and Superior. Their native range includes Siberia. They like cold water. The grass carp actually comes from the Amir river between Siberia and China. There are four different kinds of Asian carp. Big Eye or Big Head, Silver, Amir (Grass) and Black. The first two eat algae, Amir eats vegetation, and Black Carp eat mollusks. Right now 85% of the fish in the Illinois River by weight are Asian Carp. This was done in ten years. The only thing that will stop it is an act of mother nature or God. Politics let the window of opportunity to stop them close. I am an avid Great Lakes fisherman and I will probably see the Lakes Change due to this in my lifetime. And I am 65.

gnatshooter Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 If they weren't so chock full of bones I'd eat'em three times a week. But smoked, they're a delicacy that beats caviar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a good food source. Very low in chemical contaminants. Probably will be developed for fish cakes, cat food, etc. eventually.

MaDuce Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) LOL. It's no surprise how many of you bring your wifles to the range. I keep telling my friend he should bring his assault wifle out with us to the range some time. Me? Unfortunately I don't have a wifle. So that means many of you folks are allot better armed then I am. Edited March 13, 2014 by MaDuce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 I shoot with mine. Well, I take her shooting when I go. She also shoots without me - because she knows where my ammo stash is, and has the access to the storage. I'm almost afraid to go to work, because I might come home and have no "ammo reserve" anymore. She's ridiculous-ness. AND... She tries to steal all my parts. Having her own builds going on isn't enough, I guess... <dontknow> :banana: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dane Armory Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) very familiar with those. Yeah they have a population of SilverCarp in the Sandusky river over in Ohio.I used to fish for those as a kid and we would give the catch away because they were toxic ! Lake Erie was BAD, polution was off the charts. I remember the Cuyahoga (sp) River burning in 1969. It was petroleum byproducts being dumped into the river.

Blondielocks Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 (edited) Yeah... I take mine shooting with me, and sometime a bunch of his friends too! We always have fun... until he tells me I can't have the trigger that I want! <lmao> Just kidding, Tom! You're the BEST!
