I don”t think that it is fair all these Asian carp can just swim up the river further and further eating and killing everything in its path. These things just living their life but in that, they kill so many others. First in Arkansas eating everything that was in the 1970s. Since then they have moved up the river and into smaller ones they have now been seen in 45 states. They are making us shoot bio bullets at fish but only killing them.  Now making you check everything after coming off lakes and then before going to a new body of water. Thankfully very few have been found in Minnesota. Even less have been found north of Red wing.  Hopefully in the years to come these now invasive species can be either caught or killed so that lakes and rivers will no longer be polluted by these invasive species. And the native fish can thrive again
