In the United States, Asian carp is an invasive species, i.e. not native. And when you abruptly introduce a foreign species – either plant or animal – into a existing ecosystem it usually wreaks havoc.

And the Asian carp is doing just that.

The fish is thriving in places like Kentucky and Illinois, so fishermen looking to catch catfish end up snagging more carp than catfish, which wouldn’t be a problem if it was easy to sell.

Asian carp’s reputation as a foreign invader is a turnoff to consumers.

So Kentucky State University has a brilliant – or totally idiotic – idea. Last night, Stephen Colbert reported that researchers from the university want to rename Asian carp, changing it to “Kentucky Tuna.” They hope the name change will be the public relations bump Asian carp needs.

Music video by Brad Paisley performing I'm Gonna Miss Her. (C) 2000 BMG Music:

Here's the Lyrics - it's a fishing Classic!

Well I love her
But I love to fish
I spend all day out on this lake
And hell is all I catch
Today she met me at the door
Said I would have to choose
If I hit that fishin' hole today
She'd be packin' all her things
And she'd be gone by noon

Well I'm gonna miss her
When I get home
But right now I'm on this lakeshore
And I'm sittin' in the sun
I'm sure it'll hit me
When I walk through that door tonight
That I'm gonna miss her
Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite

Now there's a chance that if I hurry
I could beg her to stay
But that water's right
And the weather's perfect
No tellin' what I might catch today

Ok, I've caught some strange things on the end of my line before, but this I've never seen before or heard of! enjoy :) Roman

We have all seen the flying fish videos and fish with wings and etc... but i have never seen any thing like this before! Pitty about the Spanish, will maybe ask my wife to translate it for us. Catch u on the water! Roman

A bill proposed by Rep. Jerry Weiers says that residents of the state have the right to hunt, fish and harvest wildlife. A proposed constitutional amendment would be put on an upcoming ballot.

A group of state legislators and gun-rights advocates wants to make hunting and fishing a constitutional right in Arizona.

Rep. Jerry Weiers, R-Glendale, has proposed House Concurrent Resolution 2008.

It states that citizens would have a right to "hunt, fish and harvest wildlife" and make public hunting and fishing the "preferred means of managing and controlling wildlife."
