Get your carp flies ready!

About 15 years ago a good friend and biologist told me that eventually we were just going to have to  accept the fact that native species could not survive the onslaught of invasive species being introduced. He said no matter how hard we try, it was inevitable.
He also mentioned some things about global warming and how warm water species like Carp would probably be our game fish of choice in 50 years.
I am in no way excited about the fact that as each year goes by, I am forced to accept this unattractive prognosis. However, as long as we have short sighted assholes running our government, we will continue to trash our own water, land, and atmosphere to the point of no return.
