Asian Carp, anyone?

Looks like it can hurt.

The only thing keeping these ugly buggers out of the Great Lakes is an electric field generator.

And you though that the gobies were a problem.

Finally a serious fishing matter for the board to discuss. Well done Muxie.
This is a real threat to our precious northern resources up here and I commend you for pointing this looming crisis out to the membership.

Off the reord, I would be willing to trade you Patio, the duck tape and 3 Asian Carp for Snarfy. Final offer, till next time.

Cheers Jimbo

Say hello to the boys for me okay?

Invasive species has never been taken seriously in Canada. This is more of a federal issue, with the provinces suffering the fallout in my opinion. Ultimately all of us suffer be it from Asian carp, mussels or a host of other nasties. I believe it all can be slowed down, but not 100% stopped. It is about 80 years overdue as an item of concern.

This was likley posted as a news item on the board here. If one wanted to get serious about correcting this as part of the many maladys that befall our collective waters, you can begin asking your local MP or seeing if the media develops an interest. The two often go hand in hand, given that an MP will not make a move without either being forced by their constituents or feeling that their is some politial points to be gained.

Just another opinion, from someone that would actually like to see some results oriented leadership on this and many other matters.

Jimbo,
I think Mux likes these Asain carp because they just jump in the boat and no skill is required to catch them. As far as the roll of duck tape goes, I thank you for making the only offer and ensuring that I still get to hang with the boys. Hope to see you soon
Be well
Snarfy

Jimbo, speaking of exotic species invasions, you wouldn't believe how many times I come home only to find that my garage has been invaded by less-than-exotic Snarf and Mac species (rhymes with "feces"). These pests have been known to absolutely devastate resident beer populations, while littering the entire area with waste (ie. cigarette butts, bottle caps and empties).

These exotic species come in two varieties, the 'green snarfalicious coli" and the "black clostridium waynomacius", both of which are able to infiltrate even the most secure location in their quest of yeast-altered hops products and other mood-enhancing compounds.

I think your offer of duct tape may come in handy as the Snarf may need to make emergency repairs to his lawn chair at some point during the opener, when his long, yeast-altered hops product winter imbibement makes lawn chair support somewhat tenuous, and for by-standers, downright dangerous. Duct tape may be the answer, as his state will most likely prohibit the use of tools, other than his teeth.

The duct tape might also come in handy for face-application (in the case of the Snarf) late at night as the Snarf does tend to resonate like a chainsaw without a muffler, thereby preventing others from attaining restiveness. I strongly suspect that this behaviour is a direct result of yeast-altered hops product overuse/abuse.

I would like to take the opportunity to remind yon Snarfster that possession is nine-tenths of the law, and the Mux is most definitely in possession of not only the weight record, but also the plaque (which is considered to be the Mecca of bragging rights). Any comeback to this statement of fact would be considered "lame" and/or "pithy" as one cannot change history to suit one's current needs.

I remain, respectfully yours,

Mux (aka "Weight King", "Wielder of the Plaque")

Mux,
I bow to you as the weight king!
As for the hops/beer goes, I feel that the further north you go the faster south the hops goes. We live north and gravity pulls hops south at least that what I have told my wife.
Get back to work
Snarfy
