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.
