I want some of what your smokin'! What do you mean no other states have taken measures to eradicate them? That's just flat out wrong. There have been programs in Oregon and just about every other state. You say that Common Carp aren't destructive, lets se some evidence of that cause a quick google search shows just the opposite. My own eyes have seen the damage that Common Carp have done! Here's a quote from one of the thousands of articles on the destructive nature of the Common Carp.

You couldn't handle what I'm smokin :lol: ;);). I have read many articles on Carp, they can do damage to ponds with the stirred up sediments, but rivers are favored by Carp, and I'm sure Carp don't make much of a difference stirring up mud and uprooting plants in a river. It is clear that everyone hates them, and will not change their opinions, and will just keep looking for more reasons to hate them and for everyone else to hate them. I'll take everyones word when I hear ODFW talking about them doing damage to the Willamette and Columbia.

Any place I fish for Carp just doesn't have the capability to become like Malheur Lake, I have read this article also, places like the Willamette have too many predator species to keep the Carp in check.

That might be true but carp are a destructive force in waters that you apparently don't fish too.

I have caught trout out of the Willamette, you want to say they don't maintain themselves in a sewer, or 'is that different'. The Carp didn't choose to live in the Willamette, they have a higher tolerance for pollutants, is this a bad thing? What about all the Steely's that run through the sewer, just because they pass through the Willy doesn't mean they didn't soak up any of it's wonderful flavor, Sturgeon maintain themselves in a sewer, does that bother anyone?
