According to the AP , Akron beacon journal yesterday, a commercial fishing vessel caught a 28 inch 8 pound silver carp in a canal not far from Chicago. The canal leads to lake Michigan. Not good!! Has anyone came across any other reports of this? Apparently this canal has an electric barrier which has been deterring the carp but who knows how many have made it through. These fish will be very detrimental to the great lakes!! They eat plankton, bait fish need the plankton, big fish need the bait fish . You see where I'm going with this. A multimillion business in the great lakes could be destroyed over time. Sad!!
