Asian carp in Wheeler ———- Info needed
A few weeks back there was a post on here about Asian carp in Wheeler. I know footballcoach and myself both contacted our state elected officials about the matter. I contacted Senator Clay Scofield. As I said then, I’ve known Clay for a long time, way back when he was a full time poultry farmer.
Clay and I were both at the same function last week and when the opportunity presented itself I asked him what he had done to address the problem. He told me that he had called the state conservation office and they had no knowledge of any Asian carp being caught or reported from any waters in our state.
So, for the person who originally posted that info, can you follow up with your source and get me some names and contact info for them. If the report is legitimate, the powers that be have not been notified and I want to make sure that happens. I don’t know what the state can do about the fish but they can’t do anything if they don’t know a problem exists.
