I've always wondered when seeing these videos, how do they make the Carp jump all over the place?

Yeah but I can't help but wonder how many shipments make it through!
I wish they'd ban the sale of live Tilapia around here. I've seen people releasing them into the Ottawa River in some sort of demented ritual. Made a video of it one time and forwarded to the MNR. In hightsight, what I should have done was write down their lisence plate number. I get angry just thinking about it.

The Carp launch themsleves into the air because of the noise and vibration from the boat engine. There have been some serious injuries to people on board some of the boats.

Wow... Is it only Carp that dislike the noise and vibration, because I've never seen any other fish jump out of the water like that?

Thanks,
