Leaping Carp are really getting to be a problem on U.S. waterways. The
video looks like an absolute blast. However, many States are trying to find
solutions to keep them out of waterways. These fish have put people in the
hospital. How about running through the water full blast in your boat and
you get hit in the chest or face by a flying Carp? Do a Google search on
"Invasive fish in the Great Lakes" and you will see what a dilema this is
going to be.

You've got to be kidding, leaping carp? From staff and wire reports

Silver carp, like this one in the Missouri River, were brought to the
United
States from Asia about 30 years ago.

ST. LOUIS - For years, boaters and fishermen on many midwestern rivers
have
battled a fish with a bizarre behavior: silver carp that launch
themselves into
the air, jumping into boats and often slapping the unsuspecting upside
the head.



Man I bet it would be a blast, to "blast" those things,, put someone in
the front of the boat with a shotgun, it would be like trap shooting on
the fly. But I bet it would not be legal in any state,, too bad, it could
really reduce their numbers
