How much did we spend? Only one Carp killed and the people involved are
running like hell from their involvement in the project...

I'll bet if they came by your "dump" they could throw out bottles of
tainted " Squeezy Bacon" and get you for sure.Wouldn't cost more than
3 bucks...

Oompaloompas LOVE Squeezy Bacon.

Yes, only one killed....there and... so far..

They should have gone down the Illinois river to Havana or Peoria
Illinois and dosed them there. It seems thats where the largest
concentration of the carp are.That's where they vid the things flying
out of the water in droves.

Haven't been following it, but I thought they wanted everything dead
by where they're doing the electric fence repair.
Downstream won't matter if what's by the fence gets through.
Don't matter how many carp are killed, just that they don't get past
the fence while its down.
If the poison is working and they only found one dead carp, that's
good news.

Did they close the river for navigation when they installed the fence?

Found this, so it appears not.
Like I said, I haven't been following it.

"According to the Sun Times article I was jst reading they are dumping
poison into the waterway ($3 million worth) to kill the asian carp and
so far none have been reported found, but the poison has killed every
other kind of fish. This is step #2 of their process, first was they
set up 2 different underwater electric fences basically to stop them
from moving upstream and it was ineffective. Step #2 looks like it is
failing also. The next step on their list is closing the locks which
I imagine will come down to a battle between the shipping industry and
the commercial fishing industry, whoever has the most clout will
probably get their way on that."

I wasn't aware of any commercial fishing on the river. That, with barge
traffic, will make it an interesting battle.
