What do they do with these fish after catching them

[@DracoGamingRyanHaynes]

Should make the tournament annual

[@johnvang3545]

I think most people forgot that they were imported 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. Lmao but its always the blaming

[@whatabouttheearth]

Who is doing blaming?

[@MacDaddy5]

I wanna know what the total tournament weight was

[@TSVFishing]

6:26 scared the crap out of me. Then, I went back and watched it like, 10 more times and now I am cracking up lol That first one comes up out of the water like a bat out of heck! haha ▼

[@davideats9255]

So funny too because if that bow fisherman had just stepped aside, it would have jumped right into his bucket. Then he ended up losing the tourney by 11 lbs. I bet that fish weighed 10 at least.

Asian carp is actually starting to be sold in supermarkets. Silver carp and bighead carp have beautiful white meat; far different from the red colored flesh of the common carp.

They release them in the lakes of the asshole Georgians. Eat that Georgia!

Wow @KYAfield first video I've watched of yours and I will say great video and we have this terrible problem in the illinois river too

[@MarvinGenaro]

Seems like using nets would collect alot more fish.

[@Tuvzii]

True, but youd also get alot of the native fish aswell

[@whatabouttheearth]

And there gonna die anyway if they do that, they are an invasive species and its not like the fish are gonna be shipped back so why not give the fishers something to do, have a community event and it can also help the local economy a bit. Super huge nets could catch up alot of native or endangered fish too. The point of getting rid of carp and invasive species is to prevent destruction of the marine eco systems and native species

[@MyBallsUrJaws]

Me my grandpa uncle and dad all agree that these Asian carp need to be eliminated from Kentucky and Barkley lakes in order to restore balance to these lakes we’ve been going down to Kentucky and Barkley lake for many many many years I’ve been fishing down there since I was 6 years old and every trip we had down there at Kentucky/Barkley lake we use to catch hundreds of fish within a week and now since 2017 the fishing down there has become so miserable that we can’t even catch a single bass within a week of fishing in the summer or winter that’s how bad it’s gotten down there, it legit brought a tear to me and my family’s eye’s to see such Great Lakes with so much fishing potential get destroyed by these stupid fish it’s gotten so bad now that we won’t even go back down there until these asian carp are eliminated and the bass and schools of bait fish fish are restored the only way i think Kentucky and Barkley lake can be carp free of these intruders is by draining both lakes get rid of all the fish keep the non invasive one and start over with fish hatcheries but If I know the state of Kentucky and I do they won’t do that they’ll say it’ll cost to much money to do that bowfishing for the fish ain’t going to cut it these fish breed like tribble from Star Trek the original series they keep breeding on and on and on and on and on.

[@CamdenBakerFishing]

[@jboy2621]

[@colorfulplatefarms3327]

Why not shock it and gather them up.. get some trucks in there and haul that meat to be processed and donated?

[@CalebWayneMcCready]

colorful plate farms you’ll kill the native species. Which do not recover as well as Asian carp will.

[@KAIJUKING123]

Colorful Plate Farms do you even hear yourself shocking the lake sure it’ll kill some of the Asian carp with a certain amount of voltage but it’ll also kill the other fish that are essential and vital and native to these waters bluegill smallmouth largemouth bass bait fish saugers gar crappie turtles snakes red ears etc..

[@tracemitchell7358]

Tyler Garrison Asian carp are actually very delicious the stigma on flavor comes from natural North American carp that really do taste terrible, very different species with very different flavor. If marketed right you could create a highly valuable commercial fishery that’s aim was to kill off the fish while making money

[@davidjessee7701]

You have never bow fished !!!

[@determan2succeed385]

To the game wardens of Kentucky Department of Fishing and Wildlife.... Here's a guaranteed way to maximize removing the invasive Asian carp out of your lakes, ponds, rivers, and creeks! Massive electric fishing! It could stun the carbs making them easier for removal and if any other fish was stunned during the process it's not life-threatening you can simply wait till the fish overcomes the initial shock and reintroduce that fish to the water! Massive electric fishing day and night would decrease the Asian carp population tremendously if it's coordinated and performed by experienced fisherman as a fleet across the waters that are being fished!!! When they jump out of the water turn on the electricity when they hit the water they'll be stunned and you can scoop them up with a net quickly

[@richardg7193]

bein is that these type of fish like greens, or lake and river plants as there food source, why not have one way to catch alot more other than a bow and arrow, set a trout line with at least a thousand hooks baited with vegtables, broccoli i don't think there's been enough experimenting to find out which vegtable the carp would like the best but the dnr could do the experiment.. if the fish and game when they find out , could hire fishermen to set the trout lines. at one time they could have 5000 hooks and bait in the water over night then take a day or two to bring in the catch. this if it would work would be a faster method than missing a shot with an arrow an arrow is to time consuming because of missing the targets. to catch the baby hatchlings could place a thousand or crayfish traps spaced out with bouys, baited with vegtables to catch the small fry, that can't take a large hook.

[@davidjessee7701]

Richard G I think you mean trotline... maybe a good idea, carp at the marina are fed by tourist who put quarters in a gum machine filled with pellet fish food. They seem to love it.. maybe you could get large pellets and bait your (trot) line.. 🤔
