If only they had a sturgeon.

Thanks- I normally don't tread on BB73's territory, but did this time just for the halibut. If I keep it up, I may need a support grouper something...

Kaptur alarmed at lack of action over Asian carp
By TOM HENRY
BLADE STAFF WRITER

Seventeen years of warning and this?

U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D., Toledo) told The Blade yesterday she was absolutely stunned to learn that federal agencies not only are confused about how to keep Asian carp out of the Great Lakes, but that they also appear to be waiting for someone else to take the lead.

The powerful fish with huge appetites have been the scourge of Great Lakes researchers since escaping from Arkansas fish farms when the Mississippi River flooded in 1993. Warnings were issued as the fish swam upstream. Experts have called Asian carp the poster child of harmful exotics, claiming they could wipe out the region's $7 billion sportfishing industry if they're ever allowed to colonize the lakes.

Now, with DNA evidence showing the carp have breached a $9 million electrical barrier built 20 miles southwest of Chicago, Miss Kaptur is one of several public officials at a loss for words over why the federal government isn't responding faster.

Fuckin' Asians...first Pearl Harbor, now the Great Lakes.

You sound like Coach Hayes my man:

"MacPherson said Hayes, who served in the Navy during World War II, twice refused to sign a football for the chairman of the board of Honda because "you bastards couldn't kill us in WWII, now you're trying to kill us with motorcycles." (from a Dispatch article last month).

I've tried to scale down my efforts on these barbs lately, to let others have a ray of hope while they clown around, even if they are green in the gills. I could just whale out puns without any porpoise, telling one tail after another and baiting others to join, but that wouldn't make my rod bigger than theirs. Too many puns and folks will be like sharks in the water, looking to take me to school or put my head on a pike.

Magnificent. A true master. Moved my sole. Really- swear to cod.

Since we're talking fishing, are you also masterful at baiting your hook? Or are you just feeding us a line?
