There are retired salmon seiners in Alaska that could be purchased for little, transported to this lake and could catch this many fish in 45 minutes. A few sets per year in each lake would help keep these carp cleaned up at a reasonable cost.

Just like most of all the other fish too...

Invasive carp were originally imported from Southeast Asia to the southern United States to help aquaculture and wastewater treatment facilities keep retention ponds clean. Flooding and accidental releases allowed these fish to escape into the Mississippi River system and migrate into the Missouri and Illinois rivers. The Mississippi, Missouri, and Illinois rivers are all connected and therefore fish swim freely between them. The Illinois River is also connected to the Great Lakes by a manmade connection, known as the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal.

@@BobbyOfEarth yes and it works, although marginally when you consider the thousands (millions?) of carp that are living, breeding and decimating that whole multi river system. They may never catch up with this issue. Not at all unlike all the non native snakes in the everglades. It is a gross understatement to say that they are trying to keep the carp from becoming overpopulated. The Carp already are by a significant factor. Being non native 2 is being overpopulated in reality.

Seems like a great business opportunity and a cheap resource to feed the population.

This looks more like a commercial harvesting technique than an invasive species management technique. Everywhere in the lake where the nets are not, the fish are thriving. That includes the main body of KY Lake. I don't know how you'd do that, considering the barge traffic.

Odd that you mentioned processing the fish but never said into what? Cat food? Fertilizer? Filet o fish sandwiches?
