Hi Guys
This might be great for commercial fishermen, but the real question
should be “””What the heck is killing thousands upon thousands of fish
these past 24 months.
Jeepers, if it isn’t a “fish Jubalee” (doesn’t that sound nice) where
they are actually jumping out of the ocean, then thousands are found
bleeding from the gills, like the ‘croaker fish kill’ of last year.

Illinois state officials say they are thrilled by the mysterious
deaths of thousands of invasive Asian carp in the Illinois River last
week.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife experts are examining the fish to determine the
cause of the kill that occurred along a 110-mile stretch of the river.
Initial speculation centers on a viral infection.
“You could damn near walk across the river on the fish,” said Glenn
Neubauer, a chef at a Peru, Ill., restaurant. “We counted 100 and it
wasn’t even an hour.”
The carp would threaten commercial and sport fishing in the Great
Lakes if they spread into Lake Michigan, the Sun-Times said.
