Aha! It really is a muster of carp then!
Sounds a right nasty fish. We had Zebra Mussels in the great lakes when I was growing up. They used to dredge for those - also a foreign species.
At least the fertiliser's a good use for 'em.
Thanks for the info - I love finding out new stuff (yeah, I'm a geek),
