Subj : Carp To : DAVE DRUM From : JIM WELLER Date : Wed Jul 27 2022 21:30:00 -=> Quoting Dave Drum to Jim Weller <=- DD> The Asian carp problem in the Mississippi stems from ship coming down DD> the St. Lawrence seaway into the Great Lakes. When the ships from Asia DD> discharge ballast water htey also discharge any fishies that were DD> caught up "at home". Since Lake Michigan is commected with the DD> Illinois river system the carp get into the Illinois river and thence DD> into the Mississippi. Nope. Not at all. They were introduced to Mississippi and are making their way north. So far they haven't made it through the canal to Lake Michigan let alone the Canadian rivers flowing south into the Great Lakes from above. https://tinyurl.com/asian-carp-invasion Cheers Jim ....
