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.

These fish are currently on the verge of invading the great lakes...There is
a small electrified barrier that is currently keeping these fish out of Lake
Michigan...But this is only a temporary solution...The long term solution is
stuck on the hill being debated & being picked to death by lawmakers...All
should contact their lawmakers to voice your concerns about this
subject...Yes I know some of you will say it's not your problem...But I say
yes it is...Because if lawmakers won't protect the largest fresh water
resource we have...Then what makes you think they'll protect your water
resource???
