Well if they're easy to catch and taste good they may not have much of an impact. As far as imported fish I have an article from 1908(?) that promotes the introduction of carp into the Great Lakes as a game fish. They do put up quite a fight when incidentally hooked but they're more lawn fertilizer than table fare. Local bow hunters like to shoot them off their specially equipped boats though.
Oh Yeah! I'd take the fish over Susan.

"Alarmed Asian Carp have been known to leap from the water and knock out people in boats."

I would pay to see this.

I know this is OT and not fishy... but the guy on the left looks like he needs to be laid down in a pine box. And for goodness sakes, somebody close his eyes. EEEWWWWW!

Well, we've dealt with the Zebra mussel. Now this freaking fish is here and we'll have to deal with that. Why can't someone make a real frankenfish? One that eats the Zebra mussels and the Asian carp, and then swims back to China?

"A native of China, the Northern Snakehead... These things are voracious feeders. They're a very aggressive fish "

devastate the lakes' multibillion-dollar fishing industry

The best salmon and trout I ever had came out of Lake Michigan. I never though anything tasty could come out of there.

Long term economic warfare by China cannot be ruled out.

Every time someone says "snakehead", I think of James Carville.
