Carp Removal


Notice how the boat sits in the water with and without the daily load of carp. Approximately 10 ton of carp is removed daily from the lake in an effort to restore (or at least stabilize) the ecosystem.

What do they do with the carp?

They are dumped into a farmers field and then the farmer tills them into the earth. Since people are freaked out by these fish, this farmer is getting some really great fertilizer for free.
