Carp sienining question

The science behind the removal was pretty established and I am surprised that they discontinued the project before they  accomplished their goal !!  Ah,  maybe the "dredging boys" have a solution !!!
I liked the winter pics with the nets stretched between holes and the Kubota tractor pulling out nets full of the watery swine.
What still bothers me is the Loy’s were paid ten cents(appx)/lb of federal funds but a couple guys bowfishing would not get paid for what they killed.
