You’ve probably seen the amazing videos. Boats running down rivers as thousands of startled carp leap eight to 10 feet into the air. It’s almost comical.

It’s comical as long as it’s not you getting smacked in the face by a 20-pound fish. As long as you don’t understand that the waterway is being destroyed from within.

The good-for-nothing invasive species has already killed one woman on a Jet Ski. They have injured hundreds of boaters. Some boaters have added chain-link screens on their boats to protect themselves.
