Just get a bunch of Missouri and Arkansas Bowfishermen over there and they could take care of those carp! Quillback and BilletHead 2
MoCarp Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 KHV kills about 80% of the common carp population, Blue Springs had this happen a few years ago, LMB Virus, and a few others that show up here in Missouri (white bass) from time to time. from my understanding scientists world wide are opposed to releasing a GMO version on that virus, at best they will only kill 80% of the fish, the remaining 20% will be resistant from that point on, MONKEYS? what monkeys?
ness Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 There's a joke in there somewhere, but I ain't gonna touch it. I'm scared to. BilletHead 1 John
snagged in outlet 3 Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Stupid idea. We can’t cure the common cold (ryno virus) so how do these “geniuses” know the repercussions down the road after doing this.
BilletHead Posted March 11, 2018 Author Posted March 11, 2018 So the carp are costing the economy 500 million bucks a year from being there. How do you take care of their damage? Wonder what cumulative damage they are considered to do over here?

Man screws up enough buy thinking this could be a good thing killing them this way. So if this happens and some survive to continue breeding would they develop a resistance to herpes? What we need is sterilization. If they were not introduced there would not be a problem right?

ness Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I think if the herpes gets outta control they can dump in a bunch of Campho Phenique in and make it go away. Kinda adds a new meaning to sore lipping a fish. That is all. BilletHead and Deadstream 1 1 John
