    Default asian carp barrier

    The elecrtic fish barrier is to prevent them from getting in the great lakes, that video is from the illinois river, thats one of the first places they were at.

    If you want to see something that looks like fun up north on the Illinois River. They have a fishing tourney for the carp, they line up the boats in rows bank to bank and the boat with the most at the end gets $1000.

    You have guys in helmets, nets, baseball bats, and then when they are done they party and dig a big hole and dump the fish in and cover them up.

    If you can find the video it is amazing, I will look for it and post it if I can find it.

    Thinking about going next year anybody up for it?

    As The Guy From Red Bud Says These Fish Are A Terrible Thing To Get Into Any River Or Worst Yet A Small Size Lake. They Will Eat All The Alge In The Lake And Upset The Food Chain Quickly. The Video Is Really Neat Hope He Post It

    They really need to create an long earthen barrier to the Asians from getting into Lake Michigan... there is also the Cal Sag channel that is a shipping lane that could get them into Lake Michigan.... Worst part of this is they could already be there and we would never know because of the depth they could hide at.
