Standard fisheries sampling techniques used by most professionals may not be as effective for surveying silver and bighead carp. However, by modifying existing methods and creating new ones refined by experts, we can better sample these fish. Here, you can find demonstrations by fisheries professionals, for fisheries professionals. This series is brought to you by the Mississippi River Basin Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species, Wisconsin Sea Grant, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources.
