Local (avid) fisherman in Muskegon says that there are 22 ways the Asian Carp can get into LM, as he was on the local news. And also said he knows they are in the waters.
Not sure of his claims, but I did read a report (about 3 years ago) that Grass Carp were caught in LM around the bend area. South West Lower LM.
Grass Carp is an Asian Carp. Possessing one, knowingly or un-knowingly in MI is a 5 year Felony, 1/4 Mil fine, plus reparations to the state to eradicate them.
Plus, well, they taste like... The part they remove from Gizzard Shads before serving them up in fine eateries.
Question 2cat about that one!
