Sounds like SRD realy dropped the ball on this one, having seen whats happened in other systems I can hardly understand how "monitering" would be your go to tactic when an ivasive species is found. Be pretty interested to see how much "monitering" even took place.

you know very little of carp, and it is very very simple to eradicate a species.look up the ebro,or the affect of nile perch on lake victoria. im not sure of the proper name but a river has a capacity for fish biomass change that artificially in the natives favor ie flood the system with various year classes of our natural cold water predators. it mite take a few years but our natural fish have the capacity to do the job if action is made quickly. given that it is probably to late, oh and walleye have been eradicated from some of our lakes by angling pressure and compatition with other native fish??
